Hot dogs, Cracker Jacks, the national anthem, great seats and cheaper prices. That's what you'll find at most minor league baseball games. You'll also find some crazy mascots.

If you've been to a minor league baseball stadium you've most likely seen a mascot that was a little different than most that you see on TV.
