I hired a fellow in San Francisco who (and his wife) were Duck fans...big time Duck fans. Fired him six months later...goes to show you that all ducks can't fly.

Alternatively, maybe this is a '

a doppelgänger or doppelga(e)nger (/ˈdɒpᵊlˌɡɛŋə/ or /-ˌɡæŋə/; German: [ˈdɔpəlˌɡɛŋɐ] ( listen), literally "double-goer") is a look-alike or double of a living person, sometimes portrayed as a paranormal phenomenon, and in some traditions as a harbinger of bad luck. In other traditions and stories, they recognize your 'double-goer' as an evil twin.

' of the Oregon mascot. Note the sailor suits seen in both characters. Oregon and Anaheim are both on the west coast, very close to the Pacific Ocean.
