(Also used was "Doctor Carrot".) The second was one of the original entrants in the Great Pierogi Race, an animated and funny-costume contest presented by the Pittsburgh Pirates during baseball games (inspired by the "racing sausages" mascots of the Milwaukee Brewers). In 2003, Potato Pete was replaced by Oliver Onion. The entertainment is sponsored by Mrs. T's Pierogies of Shenandoah, PA.
