OT-Annual Hershey Bears Teddy Bear Toss Game
The AHL’s Hershey Bears along with several other Minor and Jr league teams have a pre Christmas game where after scoring the first goal the fans throw teddy bears and other stuffed animals on to the ice. The bears are collected and given to various charities to give away for Christmas. It gets bigger each year with this years total of over 45,000 bears donated.
The first clip is from the DC NBC affiliate, the Bears are a Caps farm team. The second is a much longer look at the celebration.
