Miles the father: Take a look at Broncos mascot history
Miles the father: Take a look at Broncos mascot history The Denver Broncos celebrated Father's Day with an X post celebrating some of the superstar fathers and sons on the team. Denver posted several father-son duos, including Pat Surtain Sr, and Pat Surtain II. However, the Broncos forgot to add one important father-son duo. The Broncos forgot to add the longest-standing father-son relationship for their post: Denver mascot Miles and his foal, Miles Jr. Uni Watch's Kary Klismet dove into the history of two Denver father-son mascots, Rocky (Denver Nuggets) and Miles in a Father's Day post. "Welcome back, fellow Uni Watchers, to what I can now happily say is an annual tradition of examining one of the most underrated observances on the uni-versal calendar: the convergence of Father's Day (celebrated this year on Sunday, June 15th) and National Mascot Day (celebrated every year on June 17th)," said Klismet. "What better way to recognize these two important holidays than with a story that bridges the gap between the (paternal) masculine and mascot." Klismet talked about the Broncos' unique mascot history before talking about the father-foal relationship of Miles and Mini Miles. "Mini Miles has been galloping alongside his father at games since as early as 2008," said Klismet. "Remarkably, Mini Miles doesn't seem to have grown much in those seventeen years. Maybe his coltish exuberance keeps him looking youthful. Regardless, there's no denying the tight familial bond between these mischievous mustangs by observing their on-field antics." Miles and Mini Miles recently helped the Broncos unveil their 2025 NFL schedule in May, with Mini Miles riding a sheep in a Colorado tradition called "Mutton Bustin'." What other "father-son" mascot duos can you think of?

"We are proud to have done that 19 years running, including three years with an elevated status. After all this time, the Travelers Championship is still a labor of love, made possible with the PGA TOUR's support, the best players in golf, corporate sponsors, community partners, the countless Travelers employees who volunteer their time and, most importantly, the fans.
