Delete. No hint of notability. A Google search related to him only comes up with this Wikipedia article and his Myspace page. Articles referencing him (all from the same site, thesportsbank.net) were helped written by him and the main editor of this page. The main editor of this page, Paul Banks, wrote many of the articles referenced, uploaded the picture here and maintains this page. Bottom line: Attending "several games each year" dressed as a buffoon doesn't warrant a Wikipedia article. Endlessdan (talk) 16:49, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete - for the reasons made clear by the nominator. A Sox fan should expect snow in April anyway. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:37, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Agreed, there's no independent evidence supporting notability. UltraExactZZ ^Said~ Did 00:54, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
