Tusks up in H-Town 🦣

Mammoth fan and loyal disciple of King Tusky from Houston checking in.

Long story short: a year ago I accepted that Houston probably wasn’t getting an NHL team anytime soon. I was falling in love with hockey, so I decided to follow the Utah Hockey Club since they were brand new too.

Here’s the wild part: I’ve had the nickname “Tusk” since I was a kid—partly because of my name and partly because I’ve always loved walruses. So when the name Mammoth dropped and “tusks up” became the logo, my mind absolutely blown.

Then came the mascot reveal. We were watching the home opener from Houston, and when Tusky appeared my wife and I laughed out of pure joy for a solid minute. “Tusky” was also a nickname I used to get, so the whole thing felt unreal.

All this to say: I’m such a Mammoth fan now that even if Houston eventually gets a team, they’ll have some real competition for my loyalty.

Now the actual question:
Any Mammoth fans going to the Stars game on Friday?

It gives me the chance to root for two of my favorite things:
1. A Mammoth win
2. The city of Dallas losing in any capacity

ONE LAST NOTE: We are planning to fly out in March and see a home game.
