A new mural in downtown San Diego is stirring up controversy with some Padres fans ahead of the National League Championship Series against the Philadelphia Phillies.
The artists, Ground Floor Murals, are responsible for other Padres-related murals around San Diego County, but those other murals haven't brought out the superstition in fans.
The mural shows the famed San Diego Chicken kicking down the Phillies mascot, the Phillie Phanatic. Comments on social media included, “Don't anger the baseball gods, paint over this before first pitch tomorrow” or “Knock on wood, this is too early” and going so far as to say, “If we lose the series this is why.”
While the debate continues over the mural, fans both for the Padres and Phillies just want game time to come fast.
