It is a tradition for the race to take place at the Essex derby between Colchester and Southend. Local mascots from around the area come together to raise money for the local charity Little Haven’s Children Hospice. This unlucky lion mascot smashed right into the poll. I mean, this guy did not see it coming. It was one funny moment in football.
Check out this video of a football mascot participating in a fund raiser race at a football match.(Click the video link to watch)
The league one matchup resulted in a 1-0 win for Southend, but the mascot was very lucky he had padding.
Thought it would be a good video, check it out and share your thoughts!
