Who’s that crazy bottle guy all over your website?

Oh, that’s Mumbie.

Who’s Mumbie?

Mumbie is the mascot of DC Sketchfest 2025.

OK, well, then uh… what’s Mumbie?

Mumbie (any pronouns) is a living, talking, anthropomorphized bottle of Mumbo Sauce. (And he’s totally in your face!)

What’s Mumbo Sauce?

Mumbo Sauce is a condiment that’s a specialty of Washington, DC. Sweet, spicy, sour, it’s kind of like barbecue sauce, but better. And it goes on a lot of stuff: chicken wings, fries, sandwiches, fried rice, and a whole lot more.

Is Mumbie… OK?

She’s fine! She’s just brimming with attitude, grit, and that kind of lovable stubbornness that comes with being inebriated. She might be rough around the edges, but when she’s your friend, she will NEVER let you down. OK?

I thought you said Mumbie was a he?

As previously stated, Mumbie uses all pronouns. It doesn’t like to be pinned down.

It looks like it’s dying.

To the untrained eye. Mumbie’s just… resting. They’ll be up and back in fighting shape tomorrow.
