This seems a little weird to me. If it's just one of the organization's functions I suppose it might be okay. I don't know what a probate show is but if the mascot is in a parade I think wearing letters is kind of inappropriate.

They were always really big about keeping our mascot neutral in everything. You weren't even allowed to depict the mascot in any way that might indicate whether it is male or female. So letters wouldn't go over well.

While you're in the mascot suit, you are representing the University. I don't even think the person who plays our mascot even has access to the suit outside of University sanctioned appearances at games and such. So the wearing of letters as mascot is likely not allowed.

When I was in school, the mascot was Greek. I don't know if I could ever imagine Brutus Buckeye wearing his letters. It just wouldn't work with the big buckeye head.
BTW....Brutus always wears a rugby shirt in the school's colors.

The actual costumed mascot at WIU never wore letters, but the statue of the mascot sitting outside the stadium sure did. He usually got them about Midnight on Saturday.
