Tez

WOW, I’m not usually much for blondes, but I’m on team Grazer for the adults. COME ON LUCKY NUMBER 128!

Snackness

@Tez Holly’s my fave blond but Grazer sure is looking stout!

junipersky

Those two are HARD to pick from.

Poor Otis looks so skinny!!!

Third Eye

They’re glorious.

I was all in on 747 last year but idk how to root for this year. So many wonderful bears.

Pavel

I’m not usually much for blondes

WOW. Rude.

284 Electra is my hopeful this year. I do love a generational story.

junipersky

I had yo go 806 and 901.

901 because they had the bigger size gain!

Tez

@Pavel I’M ALLOWED TO HAVE PREFERENCES.

Obviously you all voted for Grazer today, but I’d just like you to remember this when 806 Jr. comes up again:

@Tez
You can’t deny that glow up!!!

Snackness

Poor old Otis, he’s gotten old-man-skinny.

Tez

@Snackness He got my vote this round anyway. He chubbed up!! He’s lookin better!! I don’t think he’s winning this round though.

Snackness

@Tez I had to go with 901. Otis does look very handsome and less raggedy though.

dvoraen

But can any of these bears say this?

Snackness
