The recent construction and renovations at the Wells Fargo Center open up a lot of new opportunities for Flyers fans- including the beautiful Center City Club Restaurant & Lounge, the new all-inclusive Flyers experience. However, fans and non-hockey-watchers can probably agree, the best thing to come out of the Wells Fargo Center construction was the orange, goofy furball with quite the controversial past- Gritty.
Gritty is the perfect mascot for the Philadelphia team- named after the team’s attitude he follows, he’s got a big hunger for hot dogs and wins. Legend has it that his father was a “bully,” so he possesses those qualities as well.
