Bear wins third mascot of the year award

I wonder how many different people have worn the bear costume. I heard it has been only one guy this whole time but I also heard that there have been around 6 or 8, and that there are actually 2 or 3 on duty during the season to account for scheduling conflicts and injury/illness.

imagine the smell after six or eight dudes have been inside the same bear.
 
The Bear is one amazing dude. My buddy knows him. I'd love to meet him and say thanks for all the sweet stunts and laughs.

Knows him personally? I remember reading an article that purported that he kept it under good wraps, and that all his friends didn't know he was the bear.

It's one guy, I coached the daughter of one of the Jazz FO guys a couple years ago. He said the guy is in his 50s now and that's why you don't see the crazy stunts you saw back in the day, but it's always been the same guy with some guys to step in when he is injured.
 
I'm 90% sure I caught a glimpse of the real guy last season during the playoffs. But I'll never reveal that secret identity.

You mean, like, it's someone we would know, and not some random guy?

*humblebrag* I'm 99.9% sure I know who he is, always say hi to him as well. Really nice guy as far as I'm concerned. Obviously, have never talked to him about his work or asked him directly.

Again, is this supposed to be someone we’d otherwise know? Because if it’s some random dude that none of us would know, I don’t know how anyone could possibly “out” him (“he’s that mid-50s dude with short, brown hair... oh, yeah, him!”)
