Giant hornets, rampaging rabbits, dancing dinosaurs, angry ants, human boiler systems. A nightmarish vision of a post-apocalyptic future? Maybe. But these are also the furry characters who add that little extra spice to every sporting occasion. These are the world's mascots.
What is the point of them? To cajole, to intimidate, to inspire, to celebrate, to console, to terrify young children? Who knows, and frankly, who cares? They are here to stay and there's nothing we can do about it, so we might as well enjoy them.
Dance Like Everybody's Watching! is a loving and hysterical celebration of the best, worst, silliest and most absurd mascots sport has to offer.
