Yesterday, during the halftime show at the Denvernugvets basketball game, the team's beloved mascot passed out on the court. The unexpected incident caused a mixture of concern and amusement among the fans and players. The mascot, a friendly and energetic character named Nugget, was performing his usual routine, entertaining the crowd with high jumps and funny dances. However, as he landed from a particularly enthusiastic jump, Nugget suddenly collapsed to the ground. The audience and players were caught off guard by the mascot's unexpected fainting spell. Some spectators initially thought it was part of his performance, but as Nugget remained motionless on the court, it became evident that something was wrong.

Men's Trail Magic Jacket - Black
We love our Magic Shell Jacket so much that we designed a way to wear it all the time, whether we were riding, Ornot. We took it a step further by incorporating an insulating zip-out vest to fine-tune the jacket for every condition.
The Trail Magic is built with our special waterproof yet highly breathable version of Polartec® NeoShell®, while the vest is made with breathable lightweight Polartec® Alpha® Direct. The theme here is breathability, and this is the only jacket in existence that pairs these 2 high-performance fabrics together for comfort and flexible waterproof protection. This jacket will take any adventure you can throw at it. You could wear it to the grocery store, Ornot. *Fit Note - This jacket is cut looser than our Magic Shell. The size chart reflects this looser fit. The studio (and video) model is 6' 175lbs and wearing a medium Trail Magic. This product is not eligible for a discount.

Reviews for "Denver Nuggets' Mascot Incident Highlights the Physical Demands of the Job"
1. Samantha - 1/5
I recently attended a Denver Nuggets game and was appalled by the behavior of the mascot. Not only did he appear to be heavily intoxicated, but he actually passed out during the halftime show. It was extremely unprofessional and completely ruined the experience for many fans. It's unacceptable for a mascot to behave in such a manner, especially in front of families and children. I hope the Denver Nuggets organization takes this incident seriously and takes action to ensure it never happens again.
2. Jonathan - 2/5
I was really disappointed in the Denver Nuggets mascot's performance during the game I attended. He seemed really out of it and his energy was lacking. At halftime, he actually passed out on the court, which was quite embarrassing for the entire team. It was obvious that he had been drinking or something else was going on. It made the whole event seem unprofessional and left a bad taste in my mouth. I hope the organization addresses this issue and finds a new mascot who can bring some actual excitement to the games.
3. Emily - 1/5
I had high hopes for the Denver Nuggets game, but they were quickly dashed when the mascot passed out during halftime. It was not only a disappointment, but also a safety concern. It was clear that the mascot was not fit to perform and it left me wondering if proper vetting and training were done before hiring him. It tarnished the image of the team and left a negative impression on many fans. I hope the Denver Nuggets address this incident and take steps to ensure it doesn't happen again in the future.
