"Lenny the Lion" is the pride of the London Royals. He is very high energy and rambunctious, leading cheers and chants between plays. He's love to hang out with the kids in our Youth Fan Club, the London Cubs. Lenny is a hit with the little cubs. He manages to be goofy and yet ferocious at the same time. The other great thing about Lenny is he's phenomenal at scaring and chasing off smaller mascots, ya know, your Snakes and Geese and Bird Dogs and the like. In his off times, Lenny likes to show his softer side visiting patients at several local Children's Hospitals. It always brings joy to the kids to see their favorite mascot coming to visit with Royals items to hand out. Lenny also likes to hang out with his fellow Lions up at Chelsea and can commonly be found at Men's and Women's Chelsea matches during the off season. Nothing goes better with football than more football, yes? It's not easy work running around in a Lion costume whipping the fans into a frenzy, but for those that do it, it's a true calling. As for the person in the Lenny suit, well.. we don't actually know who it is. They just showed up one day. I'm not sure they are even being paid. Ah well, the kids love him.
