A few days ago were the presentation of Mascots 2010.They are original but rare at the same time. They are 3 Mascots with the names of Sumi Quatchi Miga but definitely I love the virtual mascot with the name of mukmuk who helps the others 3 guys to do something, I don’t know exactly what kind of help but is like the guy how does the boring job like buy tickets or make the line to the mountain.
However the entire mascots are fabulous and fantastic, I took some pictures with them, I felt like kid in that moment. (isn’t truth, but Sumi reminds me of the typical chihuahua dog , because, at first figured it was a chihuahua dog… jajaja)

Also with this event my memory was refreshing old moments of my life. And I remember the Mascot for the Copa Mundial de Fútbol de 1986 (Football World Cup 1986). And guess who was it? Or what was it? Well, The mascot was a Jalapeno yeap! I typical chile from Mexico, also if you didn’t know there is a place in Mexico with the name of Xalapa and the people who lives there are call them “jalapenos” and is truth. His name is Pique, Pique comes from picante (spicy).

I was searching online but I cant find who created this logo or mascot, just I found on a document and said that the Mexicans felt that the mascot was an insult but with time they change the point of view and also the mascot was one of the famous mascots and icons at that time.
And just for a little comment, yes!, at work sometimes I hate that everybody think that I eat everything with jalapenos or another kind of chiles, I know that my culture has a wonderful spicy food but that doest mean that I can drink jalapeno’s milkshake or jalapeno’s cake! Hello! Sometimes you cant get tired with this, but please if you are friend of some Mexican stop to compare with a jalapeno, believe me, makes me feel uncomfortable.
