You’ve seen him flying off trampolines, dancing in sombreros, and causing chaos in a fur suit. But who is the man behind the Coyote? In this episode of Halfway Human, we sit down with Rob Wicall, the legendary former Spurs mascot, for a wild, hilarious, and unexpectedly deep conversation.

From the sweaty realities of mascot life to the mental toll of always being “on,” Rob opens up about his 20-plus years in costume, the art of controlled mischief, and why being silent in a stadium full of people taught him more about connection than words ever could.

We go beyond the courtside antics to explore identity, reinvention, and what happens when the costume finally comes off. It's part therapy session, part comedy show, and fully human.

If you've ever laughed at the Coyote's antics, this one’s for you. And if you think mascots are just goofy fluff, prepare to be surprised.
