Many people think of the extinct saber-toothed tiger as a ferocious beast with unparalleled strength and agility. These animals were fighters and would stalk and rip their prey to shreds.
So people have a hard time believing a team with this name could have a lovable mascot? Well they must have not yet met Scotty the SaberCat!
Scotty wears a tan sabertoothed tiger costume that has a friendly face and San Jose jersey, number double-zero. He looks so nice and loving, that nobody could be afraid of him. During drives, he leads chants in various crowd sections throughout the game. And in between quarters, he interacts with the home fans and often takes pictures with them. He never says no to pictures with fans, even if he has to spend extra time on it. That's just the kind of generous mascot Scotty is. He will also never say no to signing autographs!
With his friendly, fun-loving attitude, Scotty the SaberCat's popularity has been great, and he is quickly becoming an icon of not only the NSFL team, but of the city of San Jose itself.
I think the mascot is a great way to engage fans even further in the game experience, and is a refreshing new take on an animal that was once feared by everyone!
