2. Thats just "Goleo and Pille" - Goleo redeems himself by wearing no pants.



But the real World Cup mascots are "Proleo and Pulle Pils"

3. You'd think they didn't have any sort of budget for those things...
...by looking at the cheapo mascots! :rofl: The World Cup one looks like an Alf ripoff in a T-shirt. Guess that's all the costume rental place had left....

The Olympics art is just freakin' lame.... :eyes:
