Yes, I was the mascot at Tulane for 3 years. I also did some time in the Scratchmo suit for the Brass (ECHL).

The Philly Phanatic guy (Dave something?) did indeed help design the suit. He spent a few days with me teaching me how to move around and interact with the kids. He was a cool guy, talked a lot about his dad, who coached Div II football, Delaware maybe.

Anyway, it was a sweet job. I got to meet the team and Dennis Miller when he came for MNF. He's a little dude up close. My locker room was right next to the Saintsations. They were really really nice, and that door is always propped open. Wow, this is bringing back lots of memories.

I was Mambo. It was the 2000 season. The guy who worked as Gumbo (Skeet Hanks I believe) told me that people would hate the new mascot. I had a ton of fun in that suit, and the fans were a big reason for that. I'm not sure why you guys hate this mascot; it's for the kids and the kids LOVED Mambo.

Here is a picture of the me at a appearance.
