Mikey Navarro

Mikey Navarro built a career at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and social media innovation. As the iconic Oregon Duck mascot, he made history as the first Duck named to the Capital One Mascot All-America Team—twice—danced with Jimmy Fallon, went viral with Gangnam Style, took a punch from Will Ferrell, and created a 9-0 streak with Coach Lee Corso on College GameDay. After graduating, Mikey became Oregon’s first Mascot Coach while working as a DJ and sound engineer. He later joined the San Francisco Giants as a social media lead and mascot assistant for Lou Seal, performed with the Golden State Warriors’ Hoop Troop, and became the first-ever Oakland Raiders mascot, Raider Rusher, while consulting on social media for the San Francisco 49ers. Mikey also acted in Netflix’s Mascots, directed by Christopher Guest. At Bleacher Report, he helped grow their Instagram from 1.8M to 14.7M followers, producing record-breaking content for B/R, House of Highlights, B/R Gridiron, and B/R Kicks. Today, he continues creating as a producer, actor, music producer, mascot, sound designer, and children’s book author.
