Mascots Schools, colleges, sports teams, charities and even breakfast cereals have all used a grown man in a cuddly animal costume to help their image. These mascots attract publicity and promote public relations. Many English football clubs have an official mascot. They represent the team and hopefully bring them good luck as well. Here are three of the most famous ones...


Gunnersaurus Rex is a friendly dinosaur. He has been the mascot for Arsenal Football club since1993. Since he has been with the club they have won 13 titles including the FA Cup and the European Winners' Cup! Gunnersaurus sometimes follows his team around Europe making appearances in Champions League matches too. He is one of the most respected mascots in football and all the fans love him.

Fred the REX is the mascot at Manchester United Football Club. He is a big cute red devil dressed in a Manchester United kit. He usually appears before kickoff and at half-time during home games. He is very popular with the younger children. Like many other mascots Fred often does charity work. In 2004 he abseiled down the side of Manchester United's stadium to raise money for charity! 




Billy Bantam is one of the Bradford City A.F.C. team mascots. Billy is a tall brown hen with a big yellow beak dressed in his team's purple and yellow striped kit. Billy always wanders onto the football pitch waving to the fans before the game and at half-time. It seems that he is quite a good goalkeeper himself and he sometimes takes part in penalty shoot-outs with other mascots and children.
