GTFO: Mascot Wedding Show Picked “Best in Austin” by Austin Chronicle

In news that is sure to send local bars into DEFCON 1, your beloved “Mascot Wedding Show” has been named “Best Saturday Night Date” by The Austin Chronicle in its annual “Best of Austin” issue. (Holy crap, I got chills just writing that.) Obviously this comes as a huge surprise to everyone at MW, as the annual “Best Of” is normally the time of year where the popular kids get on the dance floor and Mascot Wedding stands by the punch bowl and counts down the minutes until our parents come to pick us up. But this duckling just turned into a swan, chumps. This is our dance now!

In all seriousness, a gigantic thanks to everyone who made this possible. Thanks to the people at the Austin Chronicle, who are just as good at softball as they are putting out a damn fine newspaper every week. Thanks to KOOP Radio for kicking ass and being incredibly tolerant of a show about KFC sandwiches and Eric Bana. Thanks to the rest of Mascot Wedding – Youmans, Ximena, Long, and East Coast Duggles – for being the baddest motherfuckers on the planet. Thanks to the growing Mascot Army, the callers, the people representin’ on the Facebooks and the Myspaces, the people helping to get the word out, and the silent majority of listeners who just sit quietly and enjoy the program every Saturday. You all are the cat’s pajamas, and totally make this show worth doing.

Oh man, I need a drink. Thanks again everybody. You have no idea how happy you’ve made us right now. And keep tuning in to “The Mascot Wedding Show,” every Saturday at 6 PM CST on 91.7 FM in Austin, or streaming live worldwide at koop.org.
