Sacramento Boot Lickers

The Sacramento Boot Lickers are a Golly team from Sacramento, California, and are one of the original 16 Golly teams. Their rivalry with the San Francisco Boat Shoes, the Cali Crown, is a rivalry unrivaled in ferocity. The Boot Lickers' eagerness to please can often result in small events or a few words spiralling out of control and becoming momentous life-or-death situations involving complex moral decisions. For this reason, the Sacramento Boot Lickers are huge fans of the butterfly effect and prolific collectors of media or merchandise referencing the butterfly effect. They are also terrified of having to make their own decisions.

Boot Lickers in the Hellmouth Cup

Season 4 Bankruptcy

After their Season 4 Hellmouth Cup championship victory, the Boot Lickers were plunged into bankruptcy by a series of tragic events that occurred immediately following their first-ever Hellmouth Cup championship win.

Season 21 Hellmouth Cup Thank You Card

After being handed a loss in the Season 21 Hellmouth Cup, all of the players on the Boot Lickers pitched in to buy a comically oversized, 6-foot-tall thank-you card, signed by all 120,000 players on the Sacramento Boot Lickers, thanking the Salt Lake Turbulence for beating them in the Hellmouth Cup and congratulating the Turbulence on being the first-ever Golly expansion team to win a Hellmouth Cup championship.

When the card was delivered, the Salt Lake Turbulence had no idea what to do with it. They left it outside the front office for three days while they deliberated. On the third day, they invited a large crowd to the front steps of their team clubhouse and they burned the thank you card in effigy before the crowd. They put out a vague press release citing the spirits of Golly, something about rising from the ashes, invoking some kind of ancestors, and calling the matter done.

Two weeks later, all of the players of the Boot Lickers sent a thank you card to thank the Salt Lake Turbulence for the beautiful ceremony. The Salt Lake Turbulence burned the second thank-you card unceremoniously.

Art

Logo and Branding

When the Sacramento Boot Lickers commissioned an artist to create the team logo, the team could not agree on any ideas for the logo. Whenever anyone suggested an idea, all the other Boot Lickers would chime in that it was the best idea they'd ever heard, and was a stroke of pure genius, and was sure to knock everyone's socks off. After several weeks of this, the artist quit, and the Boot Lickers, left penniless, were forced to ask the Artists Union to create a logo. The logo was created with no input from the team. They think that it's the best.
