Reviews for "Behind the Mask: The Student Performers Who Bring the Aztec Warrior to Life"
1. Jessica - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the San Diego State mascot. I found it to be unoriginal and uninspiring. It is just another animal mascot, nothing unique or creative about it. Additionally, the costume looked cheap and poorly made. Overall, it just did not live up to my expectations.
2. Michael - 1 star - I have to say, the San Diego State mascot was a complete letdown. It lacked personality and failed to engage the crowd during games. The costume design was outdated and did not accurately represent the spirit and energy of the university. It felt like a missed opportunity to have a memorable and impactful mascot. Truly a disappointment.
3. Emily - 2 stars - As a San Diego State alumni, I was hoping for a mascot that would instill a sense of pride and excitement in me. However, the current mascot just falls flat. It lacks charisma and fails to connect with the audience. The design is lackluster, and it feels like a missed opportunity to have a mascot that truly embodies the spirit of our university. I hope they consider revamping it in the future.
