The Mascot Spot!

The Mascot Spot!




Update March 1, 2000: Ok, folks. MascotSpot is still technically on hiatus. But I'm working on opening it up again 'real soon now'. That means that I'll keep this current webpage going for a short while longer, but in the next few weeks, I'll open up a new website with a new interface. Look for it soon. It'll have a better interface than what is available now, and it'll grow as time goes on.

Note: This is a notice to say that MascotSpot is on hiatus. Right now I am very busy compiling my thesis for my degree and I think I'll be busy doing this for the next 6 months. I am devoting all my energy to completing my education at this time.

To all those who have written me email, thank you for your support. I am so sorry if I did not reply to you in a timely manner. This site gained more popularity than I ever imagined. Please continue to write email if you wish, but please be patient for a reply. Things are 'very' hectic. :/

Thank you to the mascots out there who have placed their pictures in easy to locate places so that I may link to them. Thank you to all mascots everywhere for their devotion to entertaining the crowds with their creative antics.

And thanks most of all to Erin Blank. She helped this site in its infancy by helping me hunt for mascot pictures. Since then, she has created her own site, and she has put in a LOT of work into making it the best damned site for mascots on the web. If you liked my site, you'll love hers at MascotNet.

I'll keep my website here for the time being, but I will be unable to keep it up to date. For all the links that become broken, I'm sorry for that. Again, if I find spare time, I will try to fix things up as best I can.


I'm a pretty big fan of people in furry suits, acting like the animals they are. Here's a list of some of the mascots I've found so far on the web which include at least one picture of the mascot in action.

There are hundreds to thousands of mascots out there. I'd love to have pictures of them all. Even more, I'd love to meet them face to face. If you have any pictures of mascots you'd like to see here, or if you know of a mascot that I don't have listed here, please email me.

If you find any mascots listed here whose links are broken, please inform me. Web pages are very fluid and teams sometimes move their mascot photos around quickly. As this list now contains quite a number of mascots, I expect that a good portion of them will have broken links. I'll try to keep up with the links as best I can, but I only have two hands. So again, if you find a link that goes nowhere, send me email and I'll try to fix that link as soon as possible.

More thanks go to a very good friend of mine, Tony 'Croc' DeMatio. He's been my mentor of sorts. He has helped fuel my interest in mascots and has been a valuable resource to this page. He has supplied me with mascot names to those I've never heard of, and pointed out many on the web that I would have missed otherwise. If anyone is interested in learning more extensive information about any mascot, or have any questions, I suggest you contact him. He'll probably be able to help you learn everything you need to know.

The links below are color coded to help you see if the links are valid or not. Invalid links will eventually be fixed. I'll try to update this list frequently.

CharisMascots

Don't forget to take a look at Erin Blank's
CharisMascots webpage which is still under construction. As you can tell from that homepage, she's a pretty damned cool artist too. It's still under construction, so check back frequently.


The Universal Cheerleaders Association is responsible for training a number of the mascots that you see on the fields. They have their own mascot web page which is now under construction. Take a peek over there from time to time to see how they're going along.


And of course...take a look at the Battle of the Mascots.

Personal Furry Suits

People make furry suits of their own, too. So here I've included a few links to pictures of people in their own animal costumes.

This list will grow in the coming weeks. I hope to have permission of a couple costumers to let me put in links to pictures of their costumes to let others see what happens when their imaginations run wild.

Cheetah
Korul Al-Wassar
Madison
Rapid T. Rabbit
Skat the Rallykat
Thaddeus Fox
Wily, the official CharisMascot
Woodruff
Wookiee
Yippee Coyote

I've been trying to get off my ass to make a costume of my own, to show off my eagle side. But I have no experience in making such a suit. I'd greatly appreciate any help or hints you may have on how to get started.
