Oh god, is it Mardi Gras season already? Yes, we’re sure that getting tanked in New Orleans is all fun and dandy, but is it worth the Pelicans’ seasonal mascot, King Cake Baby, making appearances?
Hell no.

Seriously, what happens if grandma dies of a stroke on the spot? Surely the Pelicans would have a bit of a situation on their hands.
On the other hand, there were some other folks who seemed to enjoy its presence:

Oh, and if being terrifying wasn’t bad enough, King Cake Baby is also trying to poison your bodies with soda:
