SlyCatWhat I know about football (or sports in general) is very limited but I really hate the way the term "mascot" can also mean a kid who goes out onto the pitch with the football players. When I see a contest saying you could win the chance to be a mascot, I'm imagining the costumed variety 😆
Giles Goat@SlyCat Also should not "in origin" "mascot" designate A REAL ANIMAL, not a human with a costume/without it ?
@gilesgoat that's fair, but my default brain setting is to think of costumed characters when I hear the term mascot
