If you’ve ever thought donning a a costume and entertaining fans at a sporting event, ala Rocky or Dinger would be fun, I’ve got big news for you… A professional sports team in Colorado is looking for someone to become the person inside their mascot suit for the upcoming season.

There are only so many of these jobs available, so this seems like a once-in-a-lifetime sort of gig.

The job is with the team formally known as the Colorado Springs Sky Sox, now the Rocky Mountain Vibes in Colorado Springs. Their mascot? A giant s’mores guy named Toasty.

The team, part of the independent Pioneer League, recently announced on X that it’s searching to fill a variety of positions, including PA announcers, members of the grounds crew and promo team, parking lot attendants, ushers and the mascot, among other roles.

There’s no word on what the position will pay, but but the Vibes are currently promoting a Vibes job fair on Thursday, April 18, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the banquet hall at UCHealth Park. Those who want a head start can fill out the application now on the Vibes website.
