Who's that coming down the track? It might be the Atlanta Braves mascot on Saturday

Game days in Athens are a special time, especially with the Georgia Bulldogs currently ranked No. 1. But for Saturday's matchup against Missouri, there might be a few extra special guests.

Blooper, the mascot for the Atlanta Braves, tweeted out Wednesday that he will be attending the game, accepting UGA coach Kirby Smart's offer he tweeted after the Braves won the 2021 World Series Tuesday night.

"aight, Athens on Saturday is booked," Blooper tweeted Wednesday.

Not to be outdone by a human in costume, Braves outfielder Joc Pederson posted on his Instagram story about Smart sending an invite.
