Behind the mask

Ever wonder what it's like to work as a big-time mascot? I visited with performers for TCU's Super Frog and FC Dallas' Tex Hooper to find out what it really means to suit up, from surviving the heat to dealing with frisky fans.

I've always liked TCU Horned Frog the best :). It reminds me of the Horned toads I had as pets when I was growing up. :)

[@raggsandfriends4477]

Wow

[@wdgaminganddisneyhistory6024]

I happened to be a mascot before a game... let me tell you, it can be a sauna in 95* heat. It happened to be later in the day too. I ended up getting heat exhaustion. But I love it so much and I’m very desperate to get back in again!

[@KarenLeeTLS]

This was great! I found this while looking around for a video taken from inside a character costume. I haven't found it yet. I wanted to see how difficult it is to see. This is in relation to the Sesame Place incident that just happened in Pennsylvania in which the character Rosita appears to snub two little girls who want to hug her.

[@user-pv8vp7ud2l]

Thank you for Explaing that history

[@wdgaminganddisneyhistory6024]

Jilladore 123 My school made a club out of it. At least half the school didn’t join! It was more like 20 people. Hope you get the job!

[@todddarnold2986]

Jay im the mascot of my elmentary school

[@patrickstewart3446]

I always love seeing how small Baby Jay is compared to the other mascots (she’s played by a woman between 4’11and 5’2 so yeah, Baby Jay is tiny mascot.)
😁

[@stephenbillings]

Not a mascot, but an ex fursuiter. The thing about non verbal communication is right. I saw a local cricket teams mascot, at a local shopping mall, and he didn't know a small child was to his left. As I was not allowed to get close to him, as the event was mainly for children, I signed left and down, to him, so he looked down and saw the child. After giving him a hug, he gave me a double thumbs up.

[@everydayebony]

Barry Anderson is still the BEST MASCOT EVER! I don’t even like sports but Benny The Bull is AWESOME!

[@raggsandfriends4477]

Yess

[@hazel_lovely0630]

I've looked every were I can't find out who plays benny the bull

[@whimsicalgolde]

The first one is known he's retired.

[@tracyevettebarnes]

It’s a cute white dude lol. He retired. The Orlando Magic mascot Stuff and Benny are business partners. I think I read it somewhere.

Mascot or not, job or not, female or male. Ass grabbing harassment is not ok and should not be something of getting used to.

[@psad1321]

Lol where are all the feminists against the butt grab?
