YOU CAN BE A MASCOT

The Springfield Cardinals are looking for people who are, in their words, "fun and energetic." People who enjoy "interacting with kids and baseball fans of all ages." People who don't mind standing up in front of several thousand people and letting loose.

From a Cardinals news release:

Spirit Team and Mascot tryouts will be held on Saturday, January 21st at 10am at Hammons Field. Spirit Team members will be evaluated on a brief interview as well as a short choreographed dance, which they will learn at the tryout. Mascots will also participate in a brief interview process.
