Swoop

It's me Swoop, the original mascot of the South Bend Cubs, Midwest League affiliate of the Chicago Cubs at Four Winds Field in South Bend, Indiana.

Winning the #SuperBowl in retirement feels pretty good!! When do I get my ring?

[Mascot Insider @mascotinsider]

Hey Swoop, you and the @Eagles just became #SuperBowlLIX Champions! We are excited for you and congratulate the entire team on a great game!

[Swoop @SBSwoop]

Today, I consider myself the luckiest bird in baseball.
Thank you for letting me live out my dream for 28 years.
Until we meet again friends.
❤️🐦

I’m so overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support from so many people this season. I’ve heard so many wonderful stories from adults who grew up with me and let me be a part of their childhood. Let’s celebrate all the good times this Sunday with my friends and family!

From one retiring bird to another, congratulations on a wonderful career @TerryMcFadden!

[WNDU @16NewsNow]

Tonight, we’re reflecting on @TerryMcFadden's career through his wife and three sons.

To his kids he was just a dad, but later they realized his importance in the community. https://t.co/3YhAoTKizv

[South Bend Cubs @SBCubs]

Thank you to everyone who came out to support the South Bend Polar Plunge. As of this writing, we have raised over $43,000 for @SOIndiana!

It’ll be a sad day at The Cove….

Let’s make @SBSwoop’s last season a great one!

What happens when an icon announces his retirement? You do a story with a 27-photo gallery, of course.

Thank you Michiana for letting me be your fine-feathered friend for 28 years. The 2024 season will be my final year as I retire from the world of mascoting.
I’m forever grateful to you all.
