Get the Bears Ready!

Milwaukee, WI—The Admirals game on Friday is for the bears. Teddy Bears that is.

The team will host their annual Jockey Being Family Teddy Bear Toss on Friday, October 29th when the team takes on the Chicago Wolves at Panther Arena. The concept is simple: fans should bring in a new teddy bear, or any stuffed animal, and then throw it on the ice after the Admirals score their first goal. After all the bears are tossed, they will be collected from the ice and donated to UMOS, a non-profit advocacy organization that provides programs and services to under-served populations.

If the Admirals don’t score a goal in the first two periods then the bears will be tossed on the ice during the second intermission.

If fans forget their teddy bears they can purchase them at the Admirals Fan Services Center from Jockey for just $10 and proceeds from those bears will be donated to Jockey Being Family.
