Lions Mascots Live Life To Fullest On Campus

MY TIME TO SHINE – Leo runs out in front of the crowd during a game at Braly Stadium this season. The life of a mascot is hard work, but Leo and Una seem to enjoy it and work hard every game.

“font-size: 14pt;”>Our UNA mascots live the high life. They wake up

every morning and give one another a good morning greeting. Una

irons their UNA uniforms and prepares Leo a hefty lion breakfast.

The mascots bathe the lion way and read the morning paper. They

especially love Thursdays when the Flor-Ala come outs.

They watch Lion King during breakfast to remind them to

have no worries: “hakuna matata.” They brush their teeth, and their

manes, and begin their adventurous day together.

day by taking a stroll around campus. They usually take pictures of

all the students doing weird things and post them on Facebook.

Then, they stop by the GUC and get Rice Box for lunch. Lions love

rice.

and Una attend their mascot class. They learn how to be the best

possible mascots and they learn about UNA history. They are very

scholarly mascots and they always make fantastic grades on their

mascot quizzes.

mascots go to the gym to keep up their lion physiques. Una attends

Flo for yoga and Leo goes to Insania for an intense workout. This

keeps them in shape for when game day rolls around and they have to

perform.

excitement every Saturday. Their excited roars can be heard all the

way from the sorority dorms. They head to Braly Stadium very early

to put up signs and make sure everything is ready for the game.

When game time comes around, they get the crowd pumped up. They

help the cheerleaders cheer on the team and they take pictures with

all of the admiring fans.

always try to outdo Leo and Una, but it just cannot be done. UNA

has the very best mascots. They are enthusiastic and they love what

they do. Leo and Una care about the team, the fans, and the pride

of UNA. They define the word mascot. Leo and Una live life to the

fullest every day, and they always put their mascot duties first.

When they go to sleep at night, they dream their lion dreams,

probably about UNA football.

book, Finding Your Inner Mascot. It will come out around

the time that MTV begins filming A Day in the Life of a

Mascot. The life of a mascot is a glamorous life.
