just got back from wetherby races, before the races started they had a mascot race that our own toby tyke was taking part in, before the race started i took my 4 year old grandson over to meet toby for a photo but when i was less than 10 yards away from toby he took off his head, never mind my grandson i was totally gutted to find out that he is not a real dog, am gunner stop drinking (cryin) (cryin) (raiseaglass) (raiseaglass)
Now you've spoilt it for all of us ! I went to the women's international game at Oakwell a few years ago ... went in the executive suites for something to eat and a door was open in the room next to ours and there on the floor was Toby's head! Gutted :'(
Fairs ....fair........... I was there myself and The Dog had personally completed a treble over Wendys this season for the Reds by winning" Best Mascot in the Race" title beating their 2 crappy Owls who never got a mention. Never troubled the photo finish in the race though.... Looked to me like the long season and too many dog treats had taken its toll.
The said head I met him in the lift once in the east stand. The said head got stuck in the lift door. He had to some right neck wriggling to get himself in the lift. His head was about 1mm smaller than the lift. Hilarious.
give over.... he is a real dog - he was probably just dressed up as the 'I'm a barnsley fan' mascot. next you'll be telling us that Father Christmas isn't real
