Oregon mascot Puddles sprints back into tunnel after losing his head
Oregon football didn’t get the best omen ahead of its seasonopener against Montana State on Saturday.
Shortly before the game, the Fox Sports camera caught the Ducks’ mascot Puddles losing his head, literally, in a stunt gone wrong. Rather than try to pick the head back up, the man inside the costume immediately made a beeline for the tunnel.

There’s something about watching a man run for his dignity while wearing giant duck feet that makes the whole scene perfect for social media.
It goes without saying the ridiculous video immediately went viral.
Fortunately, the Oregon team didn’t seem too bothered by the incident. The Ducks entered halftime leading the Bobcats, 38-3.

National Train Day celebrated at Oregon Rail Heritage Center in Portland
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — May 9 is National Train Day and the Oregon Rail Heritage Center is celebrating all weekend long.
Guests are able to get up and personal with the numerous steam engines and hop on board for a short ride along the Southeast Portland waterfront near OMSI.
“They don’t get them running that often, but when they do, it’s nice. The price for admission is fine because we know it’s going towards putting money into the trains again, which I’ll always love doing that. So it just keeps them going longer and just so everyone else can enjoy them,” said Kyle Gentile, visiting from Canby.
The event continues on Sunday from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m.The Oregon Rail Heritage Center has more information about the event.
