All It Takes Is A Passion For Furies And A Knack For Tricking Coyotes Off A Cliff: Tulsa Hiring A Mascot!

I was talking to a young lady that works for the League at Summer League and she mentioned something that really rang true.  Mascots are essentially Furries with jerseys on. It's so true. I always wonder how one goes about applying for a mascot position. Do you have to display certain skills?  What do you put on your resume?

"Skills: Able to display emotion while trapped within gigantic cardboard animal outfit."

Momma should be proud.  All it takes is a dream.

And now, if you live in the Tulsa area, you too can live that dream! Why?

 

Because the Tulsa 66ers, now part of the Clay Bennett family, are hiring for people to be Routie the Roadrunner!

D-League Mascots.  It's not just a job. It's an adventure.
