Home / MLS / Meet Timber Joey, the New Mascot for the Portland Timbers

 

The Portland Timbers kicked off their inaugural MLS season last night in style wit ha 4-2 victory over perpetual no-hopers the Chicago Fire, but the moment most people remember from last night has to do with their mascot. That’s right people, Timber Joey, the mascot of the men in Portland Timbers jerseys, is a lumberjack, and he’s awesome. You can see him saw a tree up on the sideline below while the game goes on in the background. I just can;t believe they got a permit for this.

I've played soccer since I could walk thanks to my father and love keeping up on all the latest gear and gab. I'm in my twenties, and I'm lucky enough to have found work in search marketing for a leading soccer retailer after completing my M.A. at Georgetown in 2008. My team is Liverpool, and national side is Ireland, but I've also got a passion for GAA and a number of sports. Feel free to give me a shout on Google+
