No One Can Seem To Get Their Eyes Off This Giant Cinnamon Toast Crunch Mascot From A Baseball Game
When the Mets and Marlins met recently, they were greeted by a massive Cinnamon Toast Crunch mascot sitting immediately behind home plate. While the game itself was exciting, it was the reactions of other spectators that made the whole thing into the latest viral Twitter meme.

There is every tendency that this was done for publicity purposes, but if you thought sitting behind a rowdy intoxicated fan was bad, wait until you see what it feels like sitting behind such a large figure. It's funnier...but much worse!
The experience of arriving at your seat and seeing that you're seated behind a big Cinnamon Toast Crunch mascot is nearly as unpleasant as discovering a few shrimp tails in your cereal.
As a spectator, you can barely even see what's happening on the pitch behind all that big yellow toast. It gets worse when you realize that some people who paid for front row seats behind home plate were completely blocked out for nine innings.
It didn't get any easier for the players, as pitching became more complicated with all that humungous distraction behind home plate.
