Goodbye, panda, tiger, bear or even platypusby hello to Frigethe Paris 2024 mascots, just unveiled on Monday 14 November.
A clean break with the tradition of mascot animals for the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the very bold choice of a republican symbolthe famous Phrygian cap worn during the French Revolution, to embody the great Paris sports festival 2024.
It will then “The Phrygians”, five consonants, two vowelsone of those words that we secretly hope we can get into Scrabble and of which the pronunciation will baffle many non-French speakers…
The Phryges, strange mascots, a cross between a clitoris and a porg
This joyful duo of Phryges, created by the W agency and organizer of Paris 2024, it creepily makes us think of a conceptualized clitoriswhich isn’t necessarily a bad thing as many people are still struggling to know what the entire pleasure organ really looks like (let alone when it comes to finding it).
You can also easily see a inverted uterusor even, if you have a little imagination, a porg, this absolutely adorable cross between puffin and rodent, discovered in Star Wars: The Last Jedi and obviously immediately declined in sweatshirt.
And indeed, the plush of this Phrygian clitoris will be available for the modest sum of 15 euros from this Tuesday 15 November, as well as a slew of other freebiesfrom t-shirts to keychains.
After the jumble of “Karen” logos from Paris 2024, which gave the impression of evoking a hairdressing salon rather than a sporting competition, these mascots have caused a huge reaction and We can’t wait to see everyone ride it.
And you, what do you think of these Phrygians?
