Chip The Mascot
Meet Bloomington PrairieThunder's Mascot, "CHIP"
Chip, the lovable mascot of the Bloomington PrairieThunder, appears at all PrairieThunder home games and is available on a limited basis for community appearances.
Fans never know where the fury, fun-loving buffalo mascot can be found during games in the Thunderdome. He may be entertaining fans in the stands or the suites, delivering flowers or serving cake at a child’s birthday party.
