The Utah Mammoth hockey team has unveiled a unique new addition to their game day experience - the Zammoth, a massive 17-foot-tall hybrid vehicle that combines the iconic look of the team's mammoth mascot with the functionality of a Zamboni ice resurfacer. Built in collaboration with the Diesel Brothers, the Zammoth will make its debut at Tuesday's home game, featuring special effects, custom lighting, and a sound system as it parades around the Delta Center rink.

Why it matters

The Zammoth represents the Mammoth's commitment to providing an engaging, high-energy game day atmosphere for fans. As one of the most unique mascot vehicles in professional sports, the Zammoth is sure to become a fan favorite and help build excitement around the team.

The details

The Zammoth was built on the frame of a former Zamboni machine that was used during the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. The team worked with the Diesel Brothers, a custom vehicle shop based in Utah, to transform the Zamboni into a massive 17-foot-tall mammoth-inspired vehicle complete with 3D-printed tusks and a trunk. During pregame ceremonies and intermissions, the Zammoth will provide a full interactive experience for fans, with special effects, custom lighting, and a sound system.
