"KORNER KICK," THE ROGUES INDOOR MASCOT, 1980


Portland had "Timber Jim," San Jose had "Crazy George," and the Memphis Rogues had... "Korner Kick!"  He (?) debuted during the 1979 - 80 indoor season.  I remember that the general fan reaction was, "What the hell IS that?" Korner Kick was a large, yellow thing in a red uniform sporting the number 1/3.  I remember it scared the crap out of some of the little kids.  Still, Korner Kick IS a part of Rogues' history so he (?) deserves a mention.
