Mascot Anti-Defamation League

I'm happy not to BE the mascot...but at UCF one person in one of our mascot costumes hurt himself. I think he twisted his ankle while walking on stilts. He was better a few hours later, but still...I respect those people who can dress up like that...

I was the team mascot for Team 686. I was in a cow costume, udders and all. Do you know how many jokes I had to put up with? I had guts, thats for sure. The freshman that originally volunteered for it chickened out. So i figured, it was my senior year, why not do it.

We have a mascot suit that I wore at FLR. It was all good but i scared a little girl. We have giant blow up martians and we have a person making two mascot suits that wont scare the children

The Techno Tick's mascot is cool. I saw a big giant blue tick wandering around a couple regionals and Nats last year (don't remember which ones, sorry). Big giant, seemingly totally ripped blue tick. That's about as awesome as you can get!

1097 has both our marauder, and we also have the "space suit" that our mentor (an SR71 pilot) used for missions, our second mascot.

Go Chickens!

I can say I have been the mascot..... but only because everybody takes a turn during competitions for 45min shifts.

I think the best part of being in mascots are finding other mascots and having dance offs, fights, etc.

A close second is walking up to a group hacking it up, playing soccer, w/e and schooling them while in the chicken suit.

Team 1006's mascot is a giant sprocket holding a welding torch. His name is "Torch". The mascot costume is massive and a little hurtin' right now and no one seems to know what it is. LOL

The best part about mascots is how much fun they are, in Sacramento, while we waited for the next finals match, we were dancing to something, maybe the Macarana, anyway, the giant hat was on the field, as spirited as ever, and all the sudden the pirate sprinted across the field and tackled him! The whole stadium erupted in laughter, I think they pre-planned it though, because the FIRST guy who grabbed the pirate let him go after he told him something...? It was still really funny to watch. Mascots are some of the most amazing people and we need to appreciate the person (who must be frying!) behind the mask.

Oh man you guys who haven't done the mascot have no idea how hot it can get in those suits. Speaking from experience i must say that is the hottest i have ever been in my life. We had to put in another little muffin fan in the head beacuse one didnt work and let me tell you it didnt do that much. So much kudos to the mascots with the thick foam heads and the suits that are impermeable to anything but more heat

Especially the dancing ones that have nothing but spirit.

Our team mascot is a Terrier, that is the mascot of our school.

We also carry around our huge wrench, hence our team motto:

"Speak softly and carry a big wrench"

Most of the teams at BAE or Chesapeake know us by carrying that wrench around.
