Go To

Basic Trope: The team mascot is seen as uncool.

  • Straight: The Wildcats are a well-respected high school sports team, but they all look down on Kenny, who wears the Wildcat mascot suit.
  • Exaggerated: Kenny ends up suffering a Humiliation Conga every time he wears the Wildcat suit.
  • Downplayed:
    • Kenny is a fairly average guy, but people still find his Wildcat suit rather silly.
    • Kenny doesn't get as much attention as the popular members of the sports team, but isn't necessarily seen as uncool.
  • Justified: Kenny is already looked down on anyway, so it's no wonder that they'd find his suit silly.
  • Inverted: Kenny wears a very cool-looking Wildcat mascot suit and is seen as the most popular member of the team.
  • Subverted: ???
  • Double Subverted: ???
  • Parodied: ???
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted: The mascot is seen as a regular part of the team, if anything.
  • Enforced: The show's budget wasn't anywhere close to being sufficient for a cool looking mascot, so the producers didn't even bother trying.
  • Lampshaded: ???
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied:
    • Kenny turns down the request to be the Wildcat mascot.
    • The members of the sports team are well-aware that the mascot is important, so they make him feel like a part of the team as well.
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
