i don't think i've ever seen a high school sports team with an actual costumed mascot, but kids movies and tv of the 2000s would make you think that they were actually a big thing that every school had

#do you guys remember hatching pete from 2009... that was like #the logical conclusion of this trope #is that the high school mascot gets a hero storyarc #the idea of the whole school being inspired and enamored by a mysterious teenager dancing in a chicken suit...#hilarious.#like normally the trope was to present it as like a demoralizing/humbling thing a character gets stuck w doing #and that's not a positive representation of it i suppose. but. does anybody WANT to do that?#like kids actually do like playing sports and cheerleading. perhaps...#perhaps there could be a kid out there who wants to dance in a costume but they'll probably just gravitate towards furryism #theyd wanna pick out their own costume! duh #text post #ive been rewatching hannah montana thats why im saying this #the way that season 1 episode is referenced in season 4 when she sees the dean of the college that rejected her #they were like 'you have no extracurriculars to speak of...#when you were in eighth grade you were a tricycle-riding pirate for... half???... a basketball game #and in the twelfth the grade... you climbed a rope'#sorry i still find that line hilarious #miley stewart really was out there lookin like she had no accomplishments to speak of LOL
