Sir Purr


Sir Purr is the mascot of the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League. He is an anthropomorphized panther wearing a Panthers football jersey, No.00.
On his page at the Panthers' web site, he describes his favorites snacks as "birds like falcons and eagles and seahawks." He has a running rivalry with Jaxson de Ville, the mascot of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Sir Purr also has family that occasionally joins him in games, such as Mini Meow, a younger version of Sir Purr.
He caused a stir in a 1996 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers; on a Panthers punt, he jumped on the ball even though it was a live ball, turning the play into a touchback.
