Hey, they told me that there would be no food allowed on the ski lift. Thank you Home Run Derby, for making us laugh at costumed baseball mascots attempting winter sports once again.
That's just impressive. As a former collegiate mascot, I can tell you that it's tough enough to just walk around in a 6′6″ costume without stepping on a bunch of grade-schoolers. Let alone ski down a mountain.
More photos here, including a sad, sad wipeout by the hot dog.

Chorizo probably can't figure out what the fuck is going on.
Watch out for Randall Simon!!!
I'll bet they were spotted near the 12 person beer bong before this picture was taken.
This picture was actually taken in June of last year. Yay Wisconsin weather!
It is very impressive that the sausages are still the same size considering how cold it must be.
Do you have any idea what the street value of that mountain is?
That is one big army of Luis Gonzalezes
That's funny, because in WWII, Italian tanks often faced the wrong way during battle.
Which one is Christmas Ape?
WIIIIIIPEOUT.
/obligatory.
THERE WAS SHRINKAGE!!!
I think italian sausages just enjoy facing other sausages or any other direction.
@Vizzini: "Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way, turn."
Daddy would you like some sausage? Daddy would you like some sausages?
You can't blame the Mexican one for looking terrified. Theirs is a very short ski-season.
@Weed Against Speed: Well, he's probably never seen snow before.
Which one is Martin Lawrence?
@Jerkwheat: Wouldn't all the preservatives help out with that?
I still wouldn't recommend eating the yellow snow.
Is Oscar here your main weiner man?
Wilmot Mountain? I guess Alpine Valley was still cleaning up the helicopter wreckage.
Honest, I forgot. Who is Sausage #2 again? He's gotta get himself a better PR gal.
So which turned out to be the wurst skier?
@PeteJayhawk: ouch - the sky is indeed crying

Can we please just forget about this whole internet thing now?
That's nothing, in D.C. they make the Presidents run down the streets of Anacostia during all the night home games.
This is pure snow! Do you know what the street value of this mountain is?
The thrill of victory, the agony of the meat?
The Brat seems oddly terrified for one from a northern clime such as Germany
I never go there--it's a complete sausage fest.
Dude, if you can ski the K12, girls will go sterile just looking at you.
Not sure if I would be smiling like that if I was made of lips and assholes.
@GorgeForeman: So you sauer-ed on it then?
Mascots engaging in winter sports >>> mascots engaging in water sports
Darsh!
@CIALIS COOPER: That all depends whose lips ans a-hole you are made out of.
@Jerkwheat: and the Racing Sausages couldn't stand the weather.
Hey everybody it is franks N beans here on Deadspin
Anyone have any relevant links?
I never sausage crazy mascots.
Sausages?
+ Watch video
They must be freezing their buns off.
@Sandy Magic Jackson: + 30 Helens
@Sandy Magic Jackson: Still one of the greatest sketches in the history of the Kids in the Hall...
@Sandy Magic Jackson:
We are all...sausages.

Serves him right; he just had to go and try to show off, didn't he?
@PeteJayhawk: That's a cold shot.
That bratwurst looks like an asshole.
This is a bunch of bologna
This is exactly how Cher pictures Sonny Bono's last day.
Once upon a time, there was this ... eel-monkey, and he had himself ... a bollum head ..
nice mustache on that german fellow. or is he austrian?
@UncouthSloth:
According to wikipedia,
#1 is Brett Wurst, a Bratwurst (wears lederhosen).
#2 is Stosh, a Polish Sausage (wears blue and red).
#3 is Guido, an Italian Sausage (and chef).
#4 is Frankie Furter, a Hot Dog (wearing a baseball uniform).
#5 is Cinco, the Chorizo (sombrero).
Not Pictured: Doubles Luge with the Pirate Parrot and the Phillie Phanatic.
@Tuffy: +1
I have to admit that this particular Deadspin commentator's family owns that ski area. This stunt was my brother-in-law's idea. We just dressed up a couple random workers in those things (the Chorizo was a girl who worked in the cafeteria and could barely see out of the thing...obvious in the linked videos). Actually we had to pay if we screwed one of those damn things up. Fun fact: sausage costume=$5000. Who's making those damn things? Armani for meat?
