    Wondering if a new person was hired for Clutch Bear. I saw the initial news stories about 60 or so trying out. What is the latest? Just so hard to imagine anyone but the original in the Bear Suit.

    Things will start rolling once Less finds a good suit bargain at the Salvation Army.

    Les is still looking for a Panda Bear costume. They are pretty rare.

    why? would you be surprised if someone told you there had actually been 12 different people who donned the bear suit over the years? I sure wouldn't.

    I actually tried out and was initially hired. My wiener couldn't fit in the costume so they had to revoke the offer.

    New movie coming out about mascots, probably going to be too late for the Clutch applicants to get any pointers. :grin:

    No new Clutch, yet. But here's leaked photos of the new Clutch costume and his new sidekick handler.
