The Bucks dominated the Raptors in Game 3 of their first round series to take a 2-1 lead going into Game 4 at home in Milwaukee on Saturday, so it was understandable that they would be feeling pretty confident before the game. The Bucks mascot, social media, and game ops teams were feeling especially frisky, and took some time to troll Toronto prior to Game 4.
The Bucks official Snapchat featured their mascot Bango holding up signs with various jokes about the Raptors, each more devastating than the next. They warmed up with a solid dad joke about the Raptors not being able to string together three wins in a row.
The second joke, however, was the most vicious — and one I’m a bit surprised they got cleared to go with — as they compared the Raptors to a possum.
I mean, that’s brutal (and also quite hilarious). Bango wrapped up his Toronto roasting session by asking what’s different between a dollar and the Raptors.
Another solid dad joke once again from Bango. However, the Bucks weren’t done trolling the Raptors, as the game ops crew had one more trick up their sleeve for the in-game entertainment, by way of a children’s dunk contest. They brought out an inflatable raptor and had a small girl kick it out of the way before hitting a 360 spin and dunking in just an amazing moment.

The Bucks better hope that they win Game 4 after all this, because if not there will undoubtedly be some people upset. At the half, the game in Milwaukee was tied 41-41.
Update: The Bucks lost. Womp womp.
