Trail Blazers reporter Brooke Olzendam was hilariously jump scared by the OKC Thunder mascot

Watch out, Brooke!

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself … and Oklahoma City Thunder mascot Rumble the Bison.

During Oklahoma City’s Monday night tilt with Portland, Trail Blazers sideline reporter Brooke Olzendam got the world’s worst spooking from the mischievous Rumble.

As she was preparing to go on camera, Rumble got right behind her and got as still as one of those scary paintings that watches you while you walk by it. Olzendam had no idea Rumble was right behind her, only to find out in the most hilarious way possible.

You have to see her reaction to getting the Rumble scare of the century.

It seems that Olzendam has a longstanding rivalry with the NBA’s mascots, having been spooked by them in the past. Pierre the New Orleans Pelican has pranked Olzendam in the past.

Olzendam appeared to know exactly what Rumble had in store for her, as the two met yesterday to likely set the terms for this latest scarefest.

Good on Olzendam for having such a good sense of humor, and nice technique on the scare, Rumble. Let’s hope for Olzendam’s sake that there aren’t any more NBA scare pranks in the future.
