Bears attack egos Can you name the one occupation in Butler County that allows you to jeer at persons holding a high rank of esteem or gives you the freedom to act almost identically to those put away in padded rooms, or allows you to chase, badger and grab women in an ungentlemanly-like manner? Appearance of this character: fuzzy feet, fuzzy tummy, fuz- zy ears and fuzzy fuzz. Characteristics: consist mainly of belly-rolls, swan dives, brawls, and fake heart attacks. Hint: this occupation is one that most fans can identify with at football games when the action is getting a little boring on the field. Or, sometimes even when the action isn ' t so boring. The job? That which only could be held by the Butler Bears ofBCCC. For Mike Baxter, John Mosier and Jeb Burress, living it up in a fuzz-covered suit isn ' t taken as lightly. Each must main- tain a 2.0 grade point average, must be enrolled in 10 hours of classes, and is required to attend all Butler games possible — which becomes a time-consuming event during basketball season. Being one of the Butler Bears takes a lot of showman- ship, said sponsor Rebecca Johnson-Kuntz. Getting the community involved is very important. Even so, being a Butler Bear does have its ups along with its downs but fun is the key word. What I like is being able to express myself and not anyon knowing who I am, said Mosier. I like getting wild and crazy. It ' s something fun that seems to fit my personality. Burress put it this way: The thing I like the most is getting away with all of the stuff we do. Giving the cheerleaders a hard time is always fun, too. The big game among the Bears seems to be keeping a secret identity. Unless you really know them personally, trying to figure out who is who is a great crowd teaser. Victorius foot- ball players are given a bear hug by The Bear. First down for the Grizzlies is signaled by The Bear much to the officials ' dismay. 28 Grizzlies
