That is the freaking sweetest mascot in the history of sports. I'll come up for a game. Read their website quick, will they play at Kidd Brewer?

Where will they play? On the one where the women currently play? Parks and rec?

My chip would be on the App State pitch at Ted Mack. One of the major sponsors, Booneshine Brewery, is under a 5 minute walk away from the pitch. That, plus this quotation from the Brewery guys in the Appalachian FC news release reads as follows...“We are excited to have the opportunity to partner with the Appalachian Soccer Group to bring NPSL soccer to East Boone."

"East Boone?" Methinks that's BINGO!

Count KBS out of the picture!

This is pretty interesting, we'll have to check it out.

Such a great logo. Especially after the absolute disappointment of Charlotte FC.

Totally agree! The lure of Squatch around the country might have the ability to make Appalachian FC comparable, merch sales wise, to a good many minor-league baseball teams. I imagine, if marketed properly, you'll have a lot of "believers" in Sasquatch, from all over the country, buying the gear just because...in addition to those who just think it's a fun concept. The colors pop too - it really does all work well together. Not to mention, securing a Puma partnership right out of the gate is a pretty nice get. Good job, Jason!

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Ted Mack complex isn't completely owned by the university. It looks like they've come up with a deal to play t here.

Greg, is the partner to the complex, Watauga County Parks and Rec?

Makes us sound like a metropolis.

It's a Sasquatch-Klingon hybrid! I love it.
