It follows 4 real life sports mascots. High school, college, semi-pro hockey and pro basketball.
Its actually a really good show.

Thanks for the heads up HH3, we sussed this one out this weekend, and yes, it's worth a look. Interesting perspectives of the types of people who don the suit in the name of supporting their team, and their lives at home. Some are more interesting than others, the college guy mascot is a bit of a w@nker IMO. I hope the pro basketball guy is well insured. Short 25 minute episodes makes it quite digestible for binge-watching.
However, I've hit the halfway mark of the first series, and I'm not sure there's much more that I can be bothered learning about the 4 mascots that I haven't already learned. I reckon I might move to season 2, which I think tackles a bunch of new mascots.

I thought Jersey (Hey Reb) was a wanker too, but he actually seems like a good guy later on. His bravado is stripped away towards the end.
There were certain aspects of Tux's life that I relate to as well.

My favourite episode is the old deaf woman.
