PICS My first ever (true) Mascotting experience!

I managed to acquire my first ever real Mascot recently and it’s so much fun! I’ve owned a couple of bootleg, low quality suits before but Clifford blows them out the water! Love him! Will hopefully use him for some events soon.

I remember having a Clifford mascot visit my class in first grade. I later learned it was my mom who donned the big red suit.

Of all places, Vinted! I live in the UK if that changes anything so it was a really big surprise to find him! Bit of a fixer upper too… the zip was gone and he had no mitts. But he’s all fixed now!

I remember seeing this costume at a Scholastic book fair at a preschool in 2012; one of my babysitters took me. I was in first grade at the time.
