(S28) PT2 - Mascots

[GuitarMaster116]

I am a player on the New Orleans Second Line currently, and when those words are spoken though you can already picture in your mind exactly what those 4 words represent. New Orleans is synonymous with a couple of things. Music, especially jazz, great food, Mardi Gras, and of course being south in the bayou. Really there are so many things that could fit the mold of being the mascot for the team. Actually, after seeing this prompt, a lot of people on New Orleans team started discussing who we think would be a good mascot to represent us. One in particular though is one I enjoyed a lot, and that is Louis the Alligator from the movie Princess and the Frog.

I enjoy the Disney animated movies, and one I think that is pretty underrated is Princess and the Frog. The setting of that movie is set in New Orleans and I think it does a good way of portraying a lot of the NOLA culture in it. Louis is a good personification of what the soul of New Orleans is. Being down in the bayou means he lives among other alligators as they reside in that area, and his dream is to become a jazz musician and perform for people, which is another major part of NOLA culture. I like him as a mascot not only for those reasons, but alligators also can look intense and are easily a team mascot, and Louis in particular can still have that fun-loving look that NOLA wants to represent.
