The Art of Performance: Buzz's Training and Techniques

By admin

The Georgia Tech mascot, known as the "Buzz," is a beloved symbol of school pride and spirit. Buzz is depicted as a yellowjacket, paying homage to the school's insect-inspired nickname, the Yellow Jackets. Buzz made his first appearance in 1972 during a football game, and his energetic personality and humorous antics quickly won over the hearts of fans. Since then, he has become an integral part of the Georgia Tech community and is present at various athletic events and campus activities. The design of the Buzz costume has evolved over the years, with improvements made to enhance visibility, mobility, and overall comfort. Today, Buzz is instantly recognizable with his distinctive striped yellow and black attire, oversized yellow head, and playful facial expressions.


Nowadays, these cute troublemakers are practically synonymous with Christmas. In the weeks and days leading up to Christmas, they silently watch over your kids during the day and report their "naughty" or "nice" behavior to Santa himself. It's only at night (how convenient!) that they come alive and wreak playful havoc on your home in the name of spreading Christmas spirit—eating your Christmas cookies, sitting beside you during your family's Hallmark movie marathon, and beyond.

How to do Frozen Elf on a Shelf

It’s your turn. Three simple words that strike a mixture of dread and exasperation to parents everywhere at Christmas as they scramble the internet for fresh Elf on the Shelf ideas. Without thinking it through, I committed to a Frozen Elf on a Shelf idea.

This is my big gripe with elf on a shelf, the constant battle to be new and unique to keep the magic, when all you want to do is go to bed. Instagram and Pinterest are full of amazing ideas with beautiful execution.

It was a mistake to freeze an Elf in a block of ice without research, so I thought to help someone else making the same mistake. People can make it look so easy with simple instructions of a zip lock bag and a cup. But it’s worth reading this guide before you start.

Firstly, it takes time and prep work. Water takes 1-2 hours to freeze for a small ice cube at zero degrees. So big containers take a lot longer, so you need to get started with enough time to counter any unexpected issues. Even with the freezer on -25 degrees power freeze, it took hours to get this done.

I finished this at 2am, so the presentation is lacking somewhat, but this is intended as a practical guide on how to do it and what not to do rather than showing off the lack of artistic creativity.

Reviews for "Buzz's Top Moments: A Look Back at Georgia Tech's Mascot History"

1. John - 1 star
I was extremely disappointed with the Georgia Tech mascot animal. It was really underwhelming and not at all what I was expecting. The costume looked cheap and poorly made, and it didn't even properly resemble the school's mascot. The movements of the animal were stiff and awkward, and it failed to engage the crowd or create any sort of excitement. Overall, I think it was a waste of money and a major letdown.
2. Emily - 2 stars
I attended a Georgia Tech game and was hopeful to see their mascot animal in action, but I was left unimpressed. The costume appeared to be outdated and lacked the vibrant colors that are typically associated with a mascot. Additionally, the movements of the animal seemed robotic and unnatural, making it difficult to connect with the crowd. I think Georgia Tech should consider revamping their mascot to create a more captivating and energetic presence at their games.
3. Michael - 2 stars
I have always been a fan of college mascots, and I had heard great things about Georgia Tech's mascot animal. However, my experience was disappointing. The animal's costume looked worn and faded, which took away from its overall impact. Moreover, the person inside the costume seemed disinterested and lacked enthusiasm, failing to generate any excitement among the spectators. I hope Georgia Tech takes steps to improve their mascot animal and bring it up to the standards of other schools in the NCAA.
4. Sarah - 3 stars
While I wouldn't say I disliked the Georgia Tech mascot animal, I wasn't particularly impressed either. The costume design was average and lacked the creativity and attention to detail that I have seen in other schools. The physical movements of the mascot were also quite repetitive and predictable, and it didn't seem to have a strong connection with the crowd. Overall, I believe there is room for improvement to make the Georgia Tech mascot animal more memorable and engaging.
