In which Cooperstown Kurt sits down with the greatest mascot of all-time, The World Famous San Diego Chicken! To say the story of Ted Giannoulas is unique would be an understatement. Ted was attending San Diego State with dreams of breaking into sports journalism when a local radio rep walked into class and changed his life forever. From his early days walking around the sparse stands of Jack Murphy Stadium, to becoming the national icon everyone knows and loves- Coop asks it all. When did Ted know The Chicken was taking off? Why do people call him both the San Diego and the World Famous Chicken? Was the "Grand Hatching" the most important moment in the character's history? Why is he never photographed out of costume? How did The Baseball Bunch come about? What modern player would he most like to do a sketch with? And how did he break the news to his wife that he indeed was the World Famous Chicken? And most importantly, where does Ted and The Chicken go from here? FOLLOW COOPERSTOWN KURT ON TWITTER
