The Last Night’s Game Team
College football
When the military academies play each other in football, it’s a long-standing tradition to steal the other team’s mascot.

He’ll be wearing special Snickers branded cleats and if he records a sack in the game, the candy brand will donate 20,000 Snickers Sacks to service members as part of the Operation Gratitude initiative. SNACKS FOR SACKS

Shockingly, he’s no longer with the team. THE MORE YOU KNOW
What to watch
