Pete was a South African penguin so he wasn’t used to the cold. Incase anyone was wondering how a penguin died to pneumonia. After he died, they stuffed him and had him placed in the lobby of the civic arena. He was stolen and never seen again.
Until now!!! Did you not hear ??
Why did the zoo loan him out? 😂 of all places, youd think theyd know... not to loan out a warm-temp bird
Lol pneumonia doesn't come from the cold or warm or is it a disease. It just means any excessive fluid in the lungs except that from drowning. They didn't keep the penguin outside in the cold either and the zoo there all the pens have inside habitats that are heated or cooled as case may be. Also the islands where they live aren't exactly warm either lol it dies snow in a Africa rarely but more imprtant those islands about two hundred kms south actually freeze up winter time. Reason people or animals get more pneumonia in cold isn't the cold. Quite the opposite. Penguin likely got a virus off another bird while it was inside too close quarters.
@@terryarmbruster9719 I’m just going off of what the original owner of the penguins said. I don’t think he would make that story up
Sounds like a crime the Batman villain Penguin would commit 😂.
2:27 "A 5 year-old walked in and drafted some names up?"
It was actually a "name the team" sweepstakes that had over 6,000 submissions and Rubber Puckies was just a funny one that was suggested, potentially by a 5 year-old. The 15 finalists were Blades, Breakers, Breeze, Condors, Fog, Gold, Golden Gaters, Golden Skaters, Grizzlies, Icebreakers, Knights, Redwoods, Sea Lions, Sharks and Waves.
So, Vegas just stole this list and made their name from it? hahahahaha :)
I like the Blades. It was used in WHA, but that’s not current. Some person out there would say it promotes knife violence and have it banned!! A la Washington Bullets !! Can’t have that, gun violence!! Renamed Wizards. Hypocritical as witchcraft (Wizards) was chosen over innocent Bullets!!
@@norcalfrost1140 that owner was hell bent on stealing from West Point!! Chose Black Knights, WAS instantly sued, should have left “Golden” out!! Knights or really “Nights” is was makes Vegas!!
@@chrisphillips348 As opposed to Vegas Days 😂.
The reason Ballard backed out is because he was living in the Gardens at the time, and, had the trade gone through, he would've had no where to live.
This was amazing keep up the good work!
Love your videos keep it up❤
The pens don't throw octopuses on the ice...that's Detroit
BLADES OF STEEL!!
Roger Neilson, the Sean Avery of coaches
if yall didn't know the san Jose golden seals was a name they did use for a littlie before they changed it
Salty Dogs would be a great name for a beer league team.👍
Neat info, but pop-ups were annoying.
I had Cooperalls as a kid for a couple years.
Ngl the Rubber Puckies is kind of awesome lol.
The cooperalls also blocked or messed with the view of the puck being its black like the pants
Cooperalls were awesome!
Honestly I don't mind the cooperalls. I will say they look strange but I think they look pretty good. Like hockey sweat pants
Too many men penalty is genius 🤣
Not sure how true this is, but I've heard that in the Shark's logo, the shark is eating the Pittsburgh Penguins logo because the owner got beat out by Pittsburgh in the last expansion bid and he was still butthurt about it. The triangle is inverted, and the hockey stick being but belongs to the penguin
I don't know if it was always intended that way, but there is a super cool animation of the Sharks logo eating the Pens logo made during 2016 finals.
The Cooperalls were totally UNsafe as they were slick. if you fell at 20MPH , …. Like you do on skates, you slid at 20MPH until you hit something to stop you. Can you imagine Pavel Bure falling and then sliding at 30Mph? He’d break his neck
Dude I had a pair of cooperalls back in the mid 80s 😂. I hated them. I remember seeing them and thinking man that's awesome...... Not so much
I use to play in cooperalls
The whalers be doing everything strange
One side note on the Penguins' Pete Mascot, the penguin was not a penguin from the South Pole, but a warm climate penguin, which may have led to it's pneumonia diagnosis.
Yes! Pete was a south. Africain empire penguin not custom to the cold .
Salty Dogs is better than Sharks
Neilson was brilliant in manipulating the rules.
Oh
Yeah
Dude you really have to start proofreading your videos. I genuinely do enjoy your uploads, but the consistent mishaps undermine the professionalism of an otherwise great video. I never want to be that guy, but there's always one or two in every video.
