fat bear week

The official Fat Bear Week bracket is UP and voting starts tomorrow!

I LOVE THEM.

Also love seeing enthusiasm around Fat Bear Week again, not often so many people are excited about National Parks stuff and it warms my cold, cold heart.

@Snackness omg, 747 is sure numbered right, that baby is a JUMBO JET.

Snackness

@Tez Right!? I love him, but I’m sort of a die-hard Holly fan.

I was talking to a friend about fat bear week, and another friend who was partially overhearing our conversation got a really weird look on their face. When I asked what was wrong, they were like ‘wtf you guys talking about?’. I explained and they looked really relieved suddenly. They replied with, ‘that is NOT what I thought you were talking about’

As for the bears, I feel conflicted about who to vote for this year.

Third Eye

So far I think 747 but I CAN’T DECIDE YET.

Tez

@Third-Eye TEAM 747. THE URSIRPER.

Snackness

@Testament A very different week.

Snackness

@Third-Eye I wish they would show before/afters of them because I weigh (lol) my votes on how much fatter over time.

ETA: Found before/afters here…https://explore.org/meet-the-bears

This might swing my vote to 856.

@Snackness 901 chunked up, too. Damn.

Tez

@Snackness fight me

SpaceKhomeini

I’m all in on 747 without a doubt.

Tez

It’s time.

LET’S GO ️ TAKING OFF VICTORY VOTES LANDING

Snackness

@SpaceKhomeini It took me a long time to decide, but I voted for him too.

Third Eye

Ultimately I also went with the majestic airplane of a bear. Though putting him up against 856 was unfair, I would’ve voted for him in any other match-up.

Selira

856 and 747 probably should have been the finals. But, single elim brackets are what they are. Both are majestic but my heart was called to 856 from the beginning.

Tez

@Selira I respect your choice, but I appreciate 747 for overthrowing 856’s rule.

I’m glad to see many others also appreciate 164. APPRECIATE THE SMARTS.

Snackness

@Selira It took me a lot of tummy-comparing to make my decision, and even now I doubt myself, but the vote has been cast!

I feel like the pictures snapped in rivers are cheating. It makes the floof and therefore fat look smoller!
