Being an NBA mascot has its perks but boy does it seem exhausting. Thankfully Benny the Bull is full of energy and seems to have fun with the daily rigorous tasks it takes to keep Chicago Bulls fans, players and staff smiling. If you've ever wondered what a day in the life of an NBA mascot would be, here's your answer:

Apparently it's a lot of bicycle riding, who knew? Benny strapped on a GoPro camera and grabbed a selfie stick to give fans a POV of what it takes to keep Bulls fans cheering at the United Center (aside from Derrick Rose not being injured again). From cracking jokes with players to pestering staff, Benny seems to have a lot of fun on the job.

That said, we feel like we need a nap just after watching this video. Keep up the good work, Benny, but we'll stick to our day job. If anything, we're more like this version of Benny the Bull— a little clumsy, a bit hopeless but always bringing some sweet snacks to share:
