Jimothy at the Mariners

[u/Joisjati]

[u/awright415]

Well shorten my spine and call me Jimothy… Didn’t expect to see our sweet prince on the Jumbotron

[u/OddlyTemptedFish → u/awright415]

Jimbotron

[u/weeef → u/OddlyTemptedFish]

Oh I actually lolled

[u/cyanocittaetprocyon → u/weeef]

I'm a simple man. I see Jimothy and I upvote! 🦝

[u/JJB-986 → u/weeef]

Same, wow, still going

[u/SeattleRainMaiden → u/awright415]

New phrase unlocked. "Well shorten my spine and call me Jimothy," should end up on r/BrandNewSentence

[u/eist5579 → u/awright415]

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[u/popeofchilitown → u/awright415]

Jimothy has jumped the shark.

[u/dilfpapi]

R/Seattle really might be half of Reddit

[u/2sleezy → u/dilfpapi]

I swear, the amount of comments I see on literally every subreddit of people saying they're from Seattle I'd believe it. Or maybe Seattlelites just really love to announce themselves, I'm not sure

[u/dreadroberts → u/2sleezy]

Oh hey I live in Seattle

[u/ElCochinoFeo → u/dreadroberts]

Seattleite here. I identify with your comment.

[u/bronwen-noodle → u/ElCochinoFeo]

Omg that’s crazy I’m also from Seattle what a coincidence

[u/ElCochinoFeo → u/bronwen-noodle]

People from Seattle when it comes to neighborhood identity...

"What kind of Seattleite are you?" /s

[u/rollinupthetints → u/ElCochinoFeo]

I was in Oregon at a college orientation, meeting other people at an event. Met a guy from Cali, he was in aerospace, I said I was from Seattle. He said, “are you really from Seattle?” He said everyone from puget sound he interacts with for work alway say they’re from Seattle, when they’re usually not (Renton, Kent, maple valley, Everett, etc). Funny moment to rep Seattle proper.

[u/metrion → u/ElCochinoFeo]

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shoreline 😭

[u/Murky_Tea9313 → u/ElCochinoFeo]

😂

[u/KiloJools → u/bronwen-noodle]

You, too? This is wild! What a small world!

[u/WASD_click → u/KiloJools]

Sadly, I live overseas.

[u/HomelessKitchenCat → u/bronwen-noodle]

[u/airwalker12 → u/ElCochinoFeo]

I follow the sub because I love the city and I miss when work sent me there 7-8 times a year

[u/Araucaria → u/airwalker12]

I live abroad, but Seattle is still my US address for voting.

[u/ASeaWolf → u/Araucaria]

Me too!

[u/rollinupthetints → u/Araucaria]

We found the fraudulent voter! /s

[u/SigX1 → u/ElCochinoFeo]

Wherever I travel and I’m asked where I’m from I say Seattle even though I’m from r/Bellingham.

[u/JayArrgh → u/dreadroberts]

Me too

[u/ScoobyDoosAccountant → u/dreadroberts]

No way me too! I use Arch btw

[u/Live_Operation8782 → u/2sleezy]

i think reddit skews nerdy and so does seattle. their ven diagram would be a nearly a circle

[u/SolarTsunami → u/Live_Operation8782]

Hey, don't forget about our isolationist tendencies and general sense of smugness!

[u/jdvfx → u/2sleezy]

I live in Los Angeles but the Reddit algorithm has learned that Jimothy is important to me.

[u/StrigiStockBacking → u/jdvfx]

Jimothy is important to all 

[u/sarahenera → u/2sleezy]

Probably both 😂😬

[u/brendan87na → u/2sleezy]

I live in Enumclaw, and I live in Seattle too!

[u/KiloJools → u/brendan87na]

[u/2sleezy → u/brendan87na]

You know what... That has been part of my theory 😭

[u/NadjaStolz28 → u/2sleezy]

I live in LA but born and raised in Seattle and that is my heart and soul forever and ever amen.

[u/BrianWulfric → u/2sleezy]

Same with people from Brazil when commenting on their favorite artists music videos

[u/grumbly → u/2sleezy]

We don't go outside. Internet is life.

[u/Dineffects → u/2sleezy]

I mean.....I am from WEST Seattle. Not quite Magnolia, but we have a bridge too 😉

[u/socialistRanter → u/2sleezy]

I’m actually from Renton

(Don’t kick me out)

[u/SuitableDragonfly → u/2sleezy]

I don't even live in Seattle anymore and I'm still subscribed here.

[u/Zaev → u/2sleezy]

If I lived somewhere cool it'd probably come up in conversation a lot more, so I get it

[u/HighGainRefrain → u/2sleezy]

Number of comments not “amount”.

[u/sunsnowh2o → u/HighGainRefrain]

A very Seattle correction, well done 🫡

[u/2sleezy → u/HighGainRefrain]

Colloquially... I'm mad but you know what your just taught me something I never knew

[u/asusc → u/dilfpapi]

I’m in AZ, and I love seeing Jimothy because we don’t have trash bandits here.

[u/feministmanlover → u/asusc]

Sir, you mean Trash Pandas.

[u/SuitableDragonfly → u/asusc]

We have trash pigs (javelinas) instead.

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/asusc]

Do you have armadillos, though???

[u/asusc → u/CharlotteLucasOP]

i saw a scorpion with a bunch of tiny scorpions on its back a couple days ago, does that count?

[u/Shoeprincess → u/asusc]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[u/asusc → u/Shoeprincess]

do you want to see a picture of the snake that came up through the toilet recently? or one of the significantly larger snake that was scooting across the sand in the middle of the day in 100F heat at an incredible pace?

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/asusc]

https://giphy.com/gifs/OQCVrZQ8mOYgXLZrjW

[u/Shoeprincess → u/asusc]

NO I DO NOOOOOOT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[u/asusc → u/Shoeprincess]

me either.

nobody is making scorpions and snakes a local hero mascot. I can’t even spray for scorpions anymore cause then the birds eat the dead poisoned ones and die, so I just have to let them haunt my dreams.

this is why we both love Jimothy. don’t ever take Jimothy for granted.

[u/SuitableDragonfly → u/Shoeprincess]

Here's a post from the city sub where I currently live, just for you: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tucson/comments/1ut9vgt/started_with_the_bathroom_light_visitor_now_this/

[u/Shoeprincess → u/SuitableDragonfly]

OMG BECKY NOOOOO

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/asusc]

[u/SsgtSquirtle → u/asusc]

but you have bin chickens...so jealous

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/dilfpapi]

Indoor sports like Reddit do well in rainy regions.

[u/dilfpapi → u/CharlotteLucasOP]

Reddit and basketball >

[u/gargar070402 → u/dilfpapi]

I heard about Jimothy from an out of state friend. I think he’s nationally famous.

[u/fapsandnaps → u/gargar070402]

Reddit algorithms love showing Jimothy to the masses.

I live in the Midwest and this is like the 15th post Ive seen of him this week on r/Popular

[u/Less_Likely → u/dilfpapi]

I’d say the other half is R/SeattleWA, but who am I kidding, that’s like 5%

[u/Murky_Tea9313 → u/Less_Likely]

6, maybe 7%.

Sorry, I'll see myself out.

[u/ShartKing78 → u/dilfpapi]

it's 50/50 austin and seattle until about 11PM central then it's all Indians

[u/PiccoloAwkward465 → u/dilfpapi]

I feel like if Reddit were a city it would be Seattle. I have no idea why and I’ve never been there.

[u/folove]

Jimothy throwing out the first pitch this weekend confirmed.

[u/SeaDots → u/folove]

He is the precious little baseball 😂

[u/Fauster → u/folove]

Jimothy is living in the Truman Show now though. Dude is probably wondering why the humans are acting so weird!

[u/Pumpkinbatteri → u/folove]

If he sees his shadow in September, six more weeks of summer!

[u/AdministrativeEase71]

Jimothy fever has swept Seattle

[u/Groundbreaking_Dare4 → u/AdministrativeEase71]

I live in Laos and I fucking love Jimothy.

[u/Zeta-X → u/Groundbreaking_Dare4]

You grew up in Seattle I assume? Otherwise I'm loving the idea of random Laotians being tuned into the local Seattle subreddit.

[u/Zynikus → u/Zeta-X]

Im german, never have been to the US and I adore that little guy and how you guys celebrate him.

[u/Mcbadguy → u/Zynikus]

You should have been here last year for Hot Rat Summer

[u/Zynikus → u/Mcbadguy]

Oh, I remember seeing posts about the rat mural. r/seattle is probably the only city subreddit from the US I frequently enjoy seeing posts about. I think it started with the anarchist zone you guys opened up a few years ago. Seattle seems (in parts) like a uniquely wholesome city, for US standarts.

[u/alwaysbequeefin → u/AdministrativeEase71]

I even saw a friend in Flagstaff posting Jimothy content earlier. Made me happy.

[u/HotdawgSizzle → u/AdministrativeEase71]

The world

[u/HomelessKitchenCat → u/AdministrativeEase71]

I've seen more content about Jimothy than about Seattle

[u/A-ladder-named-chaos]

My boy's famous!

[u/brother_bart → u/A-ladder-named-chaos]

Imagine just going about living your life with no idea that you are famous, people are tracking and posting where you’ve been seen, and your picture is being projected in stadiums to wild cheering.

[u/Hopsblues → u/brother_bart]

Not all hero's wear capes

[u/Ferrindel → u/Hopsblues]

No but they sometimes wear adorable little robber masks.

[u/BillyForRilly → u/Hopsblues]

Hero's what?

[u/benchley → u/BillyForRilly]

Not all hero's wear: capes.

(Some other hero's wear: boots and tights and speedos.)

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/benchley]

And nursing scrubs.

[u/StrigiStockBacking → u/Hopsblues]

Not all heroes have long spines 

[u/Neglectedpotato → u/brother_bart]

It's like a spinoff of The Truman Show 😂

[u/Duckrauhl → u/Neglectedpotato]

And in case we don't see you Jimothy, good afternoon, good evening, and good night.

[u/Diggumthefrog → u/brother_bart]

He’s a living urban legend

[u/sealonbrad]

Jimothy replacing Trump at the World Cup trophy ceremony

[u/Xenu4President → u/sealonbrad]

Jimothy can replace him everywhere really. The world would be a better place.

[u/pandershrek → u/Xenu4President]

Jimothy for president. Less war, same amount of trash.

[u/Missing_Crouton → u/pandershrek]

Less trash, cuz he gonna eat sum

[u/dbmajor7 → u/Missing_Crouton]

Our boys gotta plan for the trash too!!

[u/jeexbit → u/Xenu4President]

amen to that

[u/truffleshufflechamp]

[u/pearsnic000]

Is Jimothy going to be this year’s Etsy Witch? We can only hope!

[u/Ferrindel → u/pearsnic000]

Hot Jimothy summer.

[u/coastalmiscreant → u/Ferrindel]

Jammin’ Jimothy July

[u/SeattleRainMaiden → u/coastalmiscreant]

Jumpin' Jimothy, I think you're onto something!

[u/aintthatjustthewayy → u/SeattleRainMaiden]

Slippin Jimothy

[u/partial_to_dreamers → u/pearsnic000]

I could stand some Etsy witches calling on the power of Jimothy to do their witching.

[u/ZetaTwoReticuli]

https://giphy.com/gifs/QQLwBB5O7I0YcgK8qw

[u/GabuEx]

Can I just say, Jimothy is exactly the uniting force we need right now. I love him.

[u/Disencouraged_Otter → u/GabuEx]

I read that as "urinating force" and I think that's okay too.

[u/scarrita → u/GabuEx]

We're making up for Harambe

[u/MarekRules]

Jimothy is never leaving Seattle

[u/Plazmaz1 → u/MarekRules]

Oh to be a little raccoon, knowing nothing of the world outside the city. Concerned only with food, water, trash, and the other racoons. Washing your food in puddles.

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/Plazmaz1]

The Dutch word for raccoon translates literally as “wash-bear” 🥹

[u/CompassRosie23]

Wow, that does make him The Viral Story (so far) of 2026.

[u/TinUser → u/CompassRosie23]

The Story So Far? 😃

[u/SGT3386 → u/CompassRosie23]

I love Jimothy, but did we already forget about Punch?

[u/squirrelgator → u/SGT3386]

Punch was cool, but Jimothy is OURS!

[u/terrierdad420 → u/SGT3386]

With his unshortened spine? Forget him. He's no Jimothy

[u/pandershrek → u/terrierdad420]

He's no Jimothy

True.

[u/kennypowersrevenge → u/SGT3386]

Punch and Jimothy 2028.

[u/phauna_ → u/kennypowersrevenge]

Jimothy and Punch 2028

[u/Le_Poop_Knife → u/phauna_]

Punch Jimothy

[u/phauna_ → u/SGT3386]

We will NEVER forget about Punch.

[u/jennymenace → u/SGT3386]

Punch has been more adopted into his home troupe! He loves playing with babies.

[u/forgettingmonk → u/SGT3386]

Don't forget the baby hippo

[u/bernyzilla]

I'm impressed at the speed in which Jimothy fever has swept the city. How long have we known about Him? It seems like it was only a couple days ago when I was watching a video of a cute unnamed raccoon with a special spine amble across somebody's front yard.

[u/No_Control8389 → u/bernyzilla]

Bro, he’s sweeping the GLOBE! New Zealand already reported on him.

[u/bernyzilla → u/No_Control8389]

Nice! When did the Jimothy fever start?

If Jimothy isn't starring on the next episode of last week Tonight I'm going to be very upset.

[u/CharlotteLucasOP → u/bernyzilla]

Humanity loves a Weird But Chill Little Guy.

[u/Tribe303 → u/bernyzilla]

I just scored some cool points with my teen. She hadn't heard of Jimothy until I showed her. This post seals the deal. I'm officially a Cool Dad©. 😎

We're in Eastern Canada btw. Smokey! 

[u/Le_Poop_Knife → u/Tribe303]

Jimothy needs a mask

[u/Tribe303 → u/Le_Poop_Knife]

Is the smoke from BC getting pushed south to Seattle? 

[u/PeachyKeen443 → u/Tribe303]

Nah, not yet at least. (Just have to keep hoping the winds don't blow in our direction)

[u/PensiveObservor → u/bernyzilla]

2 days total. That’s it. Jimothy is irresistible in his wholesome appeal.

[u/CrushinItForClooney]

NYC's got Mamdani, we've got Jimothy- the country is slowly healing, city by city.

[u/total-immortal]

Jimothy getting the recognition he deserves 💐

[u/MoonageDayscream]

Omg Jimothy is a big star now.

[u/Minimum-Mention-3673]

Omg. The dream is reality

[u/LinkTheLynelHunter]

We have been blessed. World Series bound. We will never lose again. Thank you St Jimothy.

[u/KellyKaplowski]

Hot Jimothy summer!

[u/NeonYarnCatz]

My instagram feed is 100% Jimothy at this point and I'm several states away 😂 love it!

[u/Educational-Ad-2884]

That Jimothy is so hot right now!

[u/Skyhawkson]

Well, there's a flair

[u/omgitsbees]

Proud to live in the same city as Jimothy.

[u/brendan87na]

oh that is fucking AWESOME LOL!!!!!!!

[u/Shamrockah]

Wow! 🦝

[u/104thor]

Amazing

[u/Hopsblues]

Didn't have this on my 2026 M's bingo card....

[u/HalcyonCA]

I am here for this energy. Jimothy, we love you!!!

[u/Alicesblackrabbit]

All of this publicity is going to go poorly for Jimothy I fear.

[u/PensiveObservor → u/Alicesblackrabbit]

So far it is only increasing his food offerings. I trust people to respect his space. We can hope.

[u/OneDoesntSimply]

I thought the hot rat summer shit was stupid and corny, but Jimothy, he is already a seattle icon in my book.

[u/offshore_trash]

I ❤️ Jimothy   My favorite Seattle trash panda 🐼

[u/Bright-Potato7907]

Can he hit?

[u/MathematicianBig1322]

Not even Jimothy can save this team

[u/GloomyIndividual3965]

I hope you guys enjoy it when your Lil sibling to the south gets famous for inflatable frogs and shit, coz I'm loving this.

[u/hokagenaruto]

at this point I wouldn't be surprised if some clout chaser goes and takes Jimothy for content

[u/krazykrash0596]

Jimothy is just living his life and has no idea he’s famous

[u/Novel_Control_1922]

You guys are making a fucked up raccoon your mascot. Love it,

[u/StrigiStockBacking → u/Novel_Control_1922]

Dude he's not fucked up at all. This is raccoonism PERFECTED

[u/feministmanlover → u/Novel_Control_1922]

Fucked up?! I'd say he's the least fucked up thing I've ever seen. He's perfect.

[u/Torvaldicus_Unknown]

Check out r/JimothyTheRaccoon everyone!! Join to stay updated!

[u/bradbull]

One of the best things about Jimothy is you won’t be sitting around for ages waiting for him to show up. He won’t be long.

[u/FlyingNomad6294]

Dafuq is this?

[u/Elegant_Stress9100]

anything but winning i guess

[u/xWOBBx → u/Elegant_Stress9100]

I'm a Jays fan and frequent lurker here (your community reminds me of my own and I love it lol. It's not Toronto) but I'm jealous of Jimothy! I'd trade the Jays for him this year.

[u/Hopsblues → u/xWOBBx]

Tacoma had Jawless Jerry, a coyote that had a malformed snout just a couple summers ago.

[u/Ill-Army → u/xWOBBx]

Betcha 5 dollars there’s a short spine guy somewhere in Toronto. He can be named Timothy

[u/xWOBBx → u/Ill-Army]

I'm 40 min down the road from Toronto in Hamilton Ontario but they did have some sort of raccoon mascot before

Im very happy that I know where this little guy is from. Cheers

[u/TheRage469]

And of course the M's are getting crushed for using His image in such blasphemous fashion

[u/I_am_not_JohnLeClair]

Is Jimothy the course correction we’ve all been waiting for since the Harambe deviation? Is the world healing?

[u/cabinrobe1]

I wonder what he is doing right this moment

[u/thedeadlyrhythm42]

well that was fun while it lasted

[u/SingBlooSilver]

Moments like this make me proud to be a Seattlelite!

[u/YakiVegas]

I keep saying if the actual Mariners were half as good as the Mariners social media team, we'd be 3 World Series wins in a row deep by now.

[u/snowdn]

Imagine being this raccoon and having no idea you are a national celebrity.
