Mascots do what they can to get the crowd going.
You might be surprised to learn that the Florida Panthers have a mascot named Viktor E. Rat, inspired by “victory.” This revelation might come as even more of a shock as you hear about him for the first time through a video where he’s energetically dancing with a female fan in the stands.
This occurred during the Panthers’ impressive 4-0 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, April 11, where Viktor E. Rat was seen engaging in some spirited dance moves with a fan who was enthusiastically participating.

Viktor E. Rat has plenty of reasons to celebrate, as the Panthers are currently in a strong position, ranking fourth in the Eastern Conference with 106 points, just four points behind the leading New York Rangers.
As the team aims to make a comeback to the Stanley Cup Finals, hoping to avenge their previous loss in five games to the Las Vegas Golden Knights, fans and mascots alike have high spirits. The 2023-24 NHL regular season is drawing to a close on Thursday, April 18, marking an exciting time for the team and their supporters.
