Live look at Buoy:



YIKES! Our boy Buoy is just out here trying to put out some social media content during the offseason and almost got eaten by a damn grizzly bear!
Related: Buoy, my man (?), I realize you probably don’t have the best sightlines in that outfit, but I’d have a LITTLE more sense of urgency if a bear of that size was charging at me from 300 feet. Buoy was out there taking a tip toe through the tulips while a 500 pound killing machine was on his (?) six. I felt like I was watching a football game where somebody needed to get to the line and spike the ball to set up a game winning field goal and they’re just casually strolling under center. SPIKE THE BALL SPIKE THE BALL SPIKE THE BALL. Run, Buoy, run!
Well, all is well that ends well I suppose. This video ends up getting WAY more views than it probably would have and Buoy didn’t get eaten. Win/win!
PS: A few more steps for that bear and it would have been, BYE BYE Buoy amiright??
Double PS: We can speculate now because everything ended up alright, but I wonder if Buoy would have stuck to mascot code and never made a sound as he was getting eaten for dinner. Would have died a mascot legend if he did.
Triple PS: Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.
