HISTORY OF THE RALLY MONKEY

The Rally Monkey is an important figure in the history of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Major League Baseball team.

The character debuted on June 6, 2000, when the Angels were trailing the San Francisco Giants 5–4 in the bottom of the ninth inning. Two video board operators, Dean Fraulino and Jaysen Humes, took a clip of a monkey jumping around from the 1994 Jim Carrey movie comedy Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, and superimposed the words "RALLY MONKEY!" on top of it. The Angels scored two runs and won the game.(retrieved from Wikipedia.org)

The Rally Monkey is a symbol of spirit and energy and each week 1 MC will be chosen by their peers as the Rally Monkey of the week and get the honor of displaying the Rally Monkey for the following week. The person who received the most votes by the end of the games will receive the “RALLY MONKEY OF THE YEAR” award.
