Mascot Hank is here to be the official Hank after the inevitable happens, and the real Hank dies... It is going to happen at some point down the road, and when it does, never fear, the mascot will live on... I think the entire Hank thing is so disgustingly overdone. Too many bobbles, t-shirts, and everything else you can strap his face/name on just made it get old quickly. I like the Barrel Man and Bernie, but I'm not a fan of Hank becoming a permanent fixture, and it seems as if he has done just that.
