This has to be the only actually INFORMATIVE video on mascotting I’ve seen. Can anyone direct an aspiring mascot to more videos like this?

I am literally only 14 and I already have a mascot job at an aquarium, so thanks for this video. I really need to practice.

I'm a very shy person. For the first time I came across an opportunity to be a Mascot for which I was super nervous. I watched this video just 30 mins before the event and I did great! All the people around, the organizers and my own team were impressed by my performance. They felt like it was a completely different person who performed. This video really helped me to perform well. Thank you so much!❤

Trying out for my school mascot tomorrow! Wish me luck!

Sounds awesome! Glad the video was helpful.

this helped me out a lot, and the terrifying children part I can relate to. I am an eagle for my school mascot and every time kids see me, they they're hands down my beak

As the mascot for my high school three years now holy cow this was so helpful and so relatable as a fellow mascot although I think the costume is 15-20 yrs old and needs replacing so badly I have had kids yank my gloves off because of tears in the fabric and any door frame I have to be careful because the feet can get stuck in the frame and come off

this is a wonderful video. I'm a new mascots and I watched ​this video 10 times. It helped a lot particularly for the emotions

our schools pep rally is tomorrow and im the mascot and its my first time rip

I'm not the mascot at my school but I asked my schools current mascot (I'll refer him as Jax since that's the mascot's name) and I asked Jax if I could mascot for a JV game since he usually goes to the varsity games and main events such as open houses and for the experience since he'll be graduating this upcoming June and I'll be trying out but I'm getting of topic. Ive been Jax's handler twice already but Jax said YES but I'm so excited and I decided to come back to this video to help me out! Wish me luck for my first time!

@DESTRUCTOR that is fair, I wish I could be paid for being a mascot but I dont think they have enough money to do that.

I'm so glad I found this video. (This just turned into a rant, sorry XD) I'm at a small high school, and last year we didn't even have a mascot. I volunteered, but I also haven't receievd any kind of instruction as to how I should act, where to go, what to do, pretty much was just told by the cheer coach to go do whatever I wanted. But, the first football game was a disaster in my book. Exteriorly, it didn't go too bad, but most everything went wrong. I ended up scaring a couple kids. I ran into a terrifying child 😳 (she was literally punching and kicking me, and apparently there were no adults around to even help me out, so at least I nor the girl got hurt during that), and ended up standing around a lot, so that sucked. I don't have a "handler" and seeing as no one really even wants to get involved with mascot stuff, I don't think I'll get one, but I can live with that. Either way, thank you for posting this video to actually teach me what I should be doing while allowing some space for me to be creative.

I had the terrifying child with teens ALOT

I’ve been a mascot for a volunteer fire department for almost 5 years and I thought it would be nice to learn how to act like a professional mascot

The hardest mascot to probably be in is Cosmo the cougar And Benny the bull These involve being super athletic especially Cosmo you have to be a good dancer and also very good at flipping and doing backbends and hand springs Benny the Bull you have to be extremely good at basketball and you have to have some knowledge about flips and other athletic things If you know how to do any of these things I think it would be a good one

Gonna be a mascot at the big Boston Christmas tree lighting tomorrow. Going over some last minute tips!

@OlympusGrp

8 ай бұрын

Congratulations on becoming your teams mascot! First, we recommend connecting with the cheerleading coach to see how you and the cheer team can best work together, and possibly even learn some of their cheers routines. Second, you safety is most important, so only do stunts that you're comfortable with. There are many factors to consider with stunts like visibility, costume fit, and physical ability. We recommend practicing your stunts beforehand with the costume on and make sure to have a partner to help your training. Lastly, and most importantly, have a blast - enthusiasm is what makes a great mascot. Feel free to ask any further questions. Good luck!

Be careful with the bandana idea I tried that for and event and it slipped over my eyes IN COSTUME so I was blind till I could find my handler to take me back to my break room. Tie it tightly if your going to use that idea.

I was left up to learning it as I went. Now my owners can’t find anyone they like to replace me
