Reposted on: 12.9.09 0826.28 | What is with the monkey and the Angels? I'm a little out of touch. Since I'm a White Sox fan, my interest in baseball fades around Memorial Day. I live in Jersey so keeping up with the West Coast races can be tough. Please let me know. | Promote this thread! |             | pieman

Reposted on: 12.9.09 2129.14 | The story behind it, IIRC from BBTN:
Someone in Anaheim found a clip of a monkey bouncing around in an Angels uniform. They stamped the words "RALLY MONKEY" on the clip, and the rest is history.
That said, my life will not be complete until I have a Rally Monkey. Are they selling them? I thought they may have been, but it might have been people bringing stuffed monkeys to the stadium. | chazerizer

Perhaps he can follow another former Angel and get beat up by Tawny Kitaen. There's always hope.
Edit: For some reason I thought he meant the friggin RALLY MONKEY was married. I need to leave the crack alone.
