4. Sinker the Lake Creature

NW Arkansas Naturals - Sinker the Lake Creature Team: NW Arkansas Naturals
League: Texas League
Affiliate: Royals (Class AA)

NW Arkansas may be as close as we’ll ever get to see the elusive Loch Ness Monster. We’re completely OK with that, because if Nessie is half as awesome as Sinker then all is right in the world. This t-shirt-slingin’ water monster is far from shy, dancing on dugouts and spending more time in civilization than those losers on “Finding Bigfoot.” http://animal.discovery.com/tv-shows/finding-bigfoot

BIO: From the depths of Arkansas’ Beaver Lake, Sinker “The Lake Creature” has journeyed to Arvest Ballpark to show his support for the Northwest Arkansas Naturals and help out his buddy Strike “The Sasquatch” in getting fans of all ages excited at Naturals games during the summer. Sinker is big and blue and loves Naturals baseball. He loves to dance on the dugout, interact with the crowd and cheer on the Naturals to victory! (Vote for this mascot at MiLB.com’s Mascot Mania)
