Need Help? Find a Mascot!


Howdy, Mascot Explorer! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Welcome to ๐Ÿพ MascotFinder.com! This page gives you the lowdown on how to use the site. Super simple!

๐Ÿ” Finding Your Mascot

See that search bar up top? Start typing a mascot name (like "Lions" or "Wildcats"). Easy peasy.

Suggestions will pop up as you type. Click one, or just finish typing and hit Enter!

What if my mascot isn't there?! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Sometimes mascots have slightly diff names (like "Lady Tigers" vs "Tigers"). Try just the main part ("Tigers"). Still no luck? We might not have it in our database... yet!

๐Ÿ“Š What's Up With The Charts?

On a mascot's page, you'll see some charts. They show stuff like:

  • State Popularity: Which states use the mascot the MOST?
  • Per Capita Popularity: Which states *really* love the mascot based on their population size? (Sometimes small states are BIG fans!)
  • School Level: Is it mostly a high school thing? Or maybe elementary schools use it?
  • Colors: What school colors usually go with this mascot?
  • Comparisons: How popular is it compared to similar mascots? (Like "Eagles" vs other birds ๐Ÿฆ).

Look at the titles and see what's highest on the list to get the main idea.

๐Ÿท๏ธ Mascot Types & Tags

We try to sort mascots to help compare 'em. You might see tags like:

  • Primary Type: The main category (Animal, Person, Object).
  • Secondary Type: Like a sub-category (Bird, Reptile if it's an Animal).
  • Attribute: A cool descriptor (Royal, Fighting, Golden โœจ).
  • Other tags: Like "Cute", "Mythological", "Has Weapon" โš”๏ธ, etc.
๐Ÿ“ What's the "Fun Facts" Box?

That info box at the top of the mascot page? It's a quick summary!

It pulls together some of the interesting stats and details we have about the mascot based on all the data we've collected. Kinda like a mini-report card! ๐Ÿค“
