Euro 2016 has an official mascot that is NSFW to Google.
The mascot, called Super Victor, looks very innocent on first glance. It is a young boy with superpowers donning a cape and he features on a lot of the merchandise and promos for the tournament.
However, anyone hoping to purchase some of the products featuring Super Victor are in for a massive shock (that’s shock) when they search for his name online. Some search results will be products featuring the tournament mascot, but a lot of them will be of what can only be described as a monstrous-looking sex toy which, coincidentally, is also called ‘Super Victor’.
This is a mistake waiting to happen.
"Mum, can I have a Super Victor toy?"
Mums googles Super Victor 😳

Amazingly, Uefa has been forced to deny that they produce any sex toys after the link between their mascot and the sexual aid emerged.
A Uefa spokesman told the Guardian:
“All we can say is that they [the sex toys] are not produced by UEFA.”
The mascot was unveiled in November 2014, but was only given its unfortunate name after Super Victor won a public vote. The other names in the running were Driblou and Goalix.
Time to file this under yet another reason to never decide anything by means of an online poll.
