Youppi! found a job!

[KamaAina]

Youppi! was the longtime mascot of the Montreal Expos. He refused to relocate with them to Washington when they became the Nationals. And now, finally, he has a job with "Quebec's Team", the Montreal Canadiens.

MONTREAL (CP) - After almost a year on vacation, Youppi!, the furry, orange mascot of the Montreal Expos, has gone back to work.

He has been picked up by the NHL Montreal Canadiens after intense negotiations with 10 different interested groups and companies, including the CFL's Montreal Alouettes. Terms of the deal between the Expos and the Canadiens were not disclosed but one report said negotiations involved six figures....

Youppi! has not had a spotless career and in 1989 was ejected from a Major League Baseball game.

On Aug. 23, 1989, he was ejected in the 11th inning after then Los Angeles Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda complained to the umpires about his dancing on top of the visitor's dugout.
