MASCOT MONEY

The Friday File: The highest paid professional team mascot is the Denver Nugget’s ‘Rocky the Mountain Lion’ with a salary of a staggering $625,000/year, followed by the Atlanta Hawk’s ‘Harry the Hawk’ at $600,000/year, and the Chicago Bull’s ‘Benny the Bull’ at $400,000. Six of the top 10 are in the NBA, three are mascots for MLB teams, and just one works for an NHL team. I’m changing careers.
