Bango goes international

How tough is it to get a mascot costume through customs?

Bango Buck is about to find out.

Fresh from an appearance at the IndyCar race at the Milwaukee Mile last weekend, the Bucks mascot is heading to China to represent the team in the Jr. NBA China Skills Challenge, which runs through the weekend.

The Challenge is a touring NBA basketball skills and healthy life skills program traveling throughout China from March to August.

Though he isn't permitted to talk (it's an international mascot law), Bango will blog about his travels to Zhengzhou, the mascot's first-ever international trip, beginning Thursday, June 7 at the team Web site -- bucks.com.
