Imagine the Ham emoji being held by Frep the Fox, Polly Polaris, Cubby and/or Brisky. The scene is a stadium in Japan, where the Hokkaido Nippon Ham-Ham Fighters are playing.
Frep the Fox (フレップ・ザ・フォックス) is one of the four current mascots for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters baseball team. He was introduced on March 21, 2016, but has first appeared no earlier than the 4th of February. When he first joined in 2016, he was concidered an "apprentice".
The Ham Emoji collection includes a variety of emojis, combinations, and message examples related to ham. 🐷🍖 - Ham
Polly Polaris (ポリーポラリス) is one of the four current mascots for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters baseball team, along with Brisky the Bear, Cubby, and Frep the Fox. She was introduced on November 23, 2012, the same time the team announced their 10th season. According to her fictional backstory, she was childhood friends with Brisky.
Goals:
News coverage/social media featuring the mascots of the Nippon meeting the LP Hams emoji
Coverage of the process, from idea to the big day in the stadium
Hi.
Two things are assumed:
that there is interest in taking hams/farcast not only into web2, but international IRL
That Stephen Black has the experience and drive to create this project

Many years of living experience in Japan; in 2023 toured Japan extensively to evangelize spatial computing/AR. Called the “GeoPose ARu Tour, most major cities in Japan were covered, from Okinawa in the South to Hokkaido in the north. (The Nippon Ham Fighters are based in Sapporo in the north, but will be playing across Japan in April.)

Depending on interest, I will develop this idea, hoping that during my stay in Japan this will happen.
The target is sometime in April.
We can do this.
What do YOU say?
