I know a lot is made over players' game worn jerseys. People collect them, and they sell for a premium, depending upon the player. However, I never hear about what happens to the shirts that mascots wear at games. We've all seen our favorite mascots decked out in their respective teams' uniforms.

Does anybody own any mascot-used jerseys? If so, I would love to see photographs in this thread, along with stories about how much they cost in comparison to players' jerseys.

BTW, I am also hoping to track down the Rally Squirrel jersey worn in the World Series parade. If anybody has any idea of what became of it, please feel free to email me.

Let's see your event-worn mascot jerseys.

Mascat Jerseys prob are either attached to some of the costumes or just get reused as they either have the mascots name on the back or no name at all.

Pittsburgh Pirates sold at least one "Parrot" jersey this year or last year. I believe there was a couple, but I can only say for certainty they auctioned off at least one at a low price.

I would absolutely love to get my hands on the Squatch Supersonics jersey.

That would be pretty cool. I'm hoping that other forum members have mascot-used jerseys. It's another angle on the collecting phenomenon, so I'm hoping to hear from those on GUU.

Lastings - Were the Parrot jerseys authenticated? You wouldn't happen to have pictures, would you?

That's pretty cool. When you click on the image, the photo comes up.

I would say they were authenticated since everything they have auctioned has a holo, but I can't say for certain because at the time I wasn't interested in bidding on it (just thought it was a unique and humorous item). I don't have pictures, but I remember the auction picture was like any other auction jersey picture they have (which is a folded in half jersey displaying the last name, in this case "Parrot".) I'm trying to remember what style jersey it was, but I can't (believe it was home or pinstripe).
