I hope Youppi, the Phanatic, and the Chicken go to pay their respects at his funeral. They had some of their most legendary moments thanks to him.

I was at that game in 1989. I used to cleaning the Olympic Stadium for the Montreal Expos. That happened about 1:30 am in the morning. The game ended about 2 am before Rick Dempsey hit a homer against Denis Martinez in inning 22nd, 1-0 Dodgers final score. It became the longest baseball game in MLB history. So, . Youppi decided he had enough of waiting, so he went inside his locker room and changed into "pyjamas". I didn't blame him. It was the 20th inning or so. First time in history a mascot was throwing from a baseball game. We finished the stadium clean up around 12 pm not as normally was around 7 am. I miss Youppi. And so my Montreal Expos.

The longest game was 26 innings and would be longer between the Boston Braves and the Brooklyn Robins on May 1, 1920. Both starting pitchers pitched all 26 innings in the 1-1 tie called because of darkness in the 3-hour 59-minute game. Night games would begin in 1935.
I love the dejected look Youpii gives when he realizes he’s been tossed lmao BTW, the Expos were an awesome team
Woulda been a major power move had opposing manager run out to argue
He was ejected earlier, then he was let back in this is his second ejection of the game

First I heard of this. What I remember is that he was allowed back in but could not be near the Dodgers' dugout. Note that this happened in the 11th and the game went 22 innings. Longest game in Expos history as they lost 1-0. That's Bryn Smith the pitcher and Willie Randolph at the plate. For those interested, the boxscore at Baseball Reference: www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MON/MON198908230.shtml doesn't mention Youppi's ejection but the one at Retrosheet does: www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1989/B08230MON1989.htm

Youppi is the greatest mascot in Sport history. Today, of course, he inspires the Canadians, but his origin and true love is the Expos. He's waiting patiently for the day when baseball returns to Montreal, and he can once again don the Expo cap while groping the attractive fans who so adore him. All hail, YOUPPI!!!!!!!!

If I lived in California, I'd buy a Yoppi outfit and walk by Tommy's house every day.
He fought more with the mascots than with opposing teams, because mascots wouldn't retaliate, that's the only thing he had in common with the San Diego chicken
Two worst moments in Expos history - Youppi ejected, and the 1994 strike. Je me souviens!
