    (I freely admit this is the lowest hanging fruit of them all.)

    Bad news, bear.

      Low hang fruit yes, but quality low hanging fruit.

    In response, the North Carolina House just authored HB-3, which requires bears to use their own playing fields.

      Addendum to HB-3: minimum wage is now $1 and slavery is legal again

      And the compromise? Republicans drop the bear discrimination, Democrats cave on minimum wage and slavery. Meet in the middle, everyone is happy.

    LET THE BEAR PLAY !!! LET THE BEAR PLAY !!

    Just watch-out for Mama Bear—Possibly THE most dangerous animal is a Mama Bear that thinks her cub(s) is in danger. I hope they’re both OK !?!?

    Update Please ??

      I think some wires are crossed with the sources in this article. KFSM is apparently a station in Arkansas, and the article (from last month, by the way) is referencing a bear on the loose near a little league game in Mansfield, AK.

      Kara Sundlun’s Facebook post is referencing a bear on the loose near King Philip Middle School little league practice. King Philip Middle School is in West Hartford, CT, not Mansfield, CT.

      Sundlun’s Facebook post is about 10 hours old (as of posting this comment), which would seem to confirm that these are two unrelated, yet eerily similar, incidents. The only reason why I caught it is because I’m aware of Mansfield, CT, and know that there’s no King Philip Middle School there.

        Yeah, I’m right near Mansfield CT so I was disappointed to realize there are not actually any frolicking baby bears on the loose here.

        They should let him play. The cubs are really good this year.

      Am I high or is this story an amalgamation of two bear sightings at little league games, one in Mansfield, Arkansas and the other in Mansfield, Connecticut.

      Sure, but bears are better suited for Frisbee golf leagues.

          I am kind of confused by the locations here but I think there is actually a bear little league CONSPIRACY. The story linked to is from Mansfield, Arkansas, a couple weeks ago, but the facebook posts are from West Hartford, CT, today.

          So basically nowhere is safe.
