This is Crazy Crab ... the mid-'80s mascot of the San Francisco Giants. I got this bobblehead last year at a game. He's surrounded by some other Giants bobbleheads I've got at games in the last few years -- All-Star third baseman Matt Williams, Kevin Mitchell recreating his barehanded catch in left field, current closer Brian Wilson, and the Randy Johnson 300-win bobblehead.

Don't expect this will do too well, but I had fun setting it up and shooting it while waiting to go to Saturday's game. :)

Is that really the mascot?!? I think it would have been even more out of the ordinary if it was a mascot of another team.
