1984 was a grim year for the San Francisco Giants. The team finished dead last, losing 96 games. But no one had it worse than Wayne Doba, the 33-year-old actor selected to play the club's first mascot. The "Crazy Crab" was conceived as The Anti-Mascot with an intentionally shabby foam costume. TV ads showed manager Frank Robinson attempting to strangle the Crab and at games, announcers would encourage fans to boo whenever the Crab took the field.
