I totally thought this was a joke when I read it. This is very "1980s creepy doll people in Epcot" of you, Disney.

Why blame Disney for something Coke has chosen to do? They offer the same thing at Coke World in Atlanta.

Yeah. I was about to add that. He's pretty popular at World of Coca-Cola.

...he's good for a photo with the kids for all the residents of Polk, orange, and Osceola counties...

...before they laugh at the prices at springs and head over to the premium outlets to get some under armour

Photopass will be there, but judging by his paw it doesn't appear like he will be able to autograph. Too bad, could have been one of those really obscure signatures Abby Cadabby.

Lies!

I will say, I am a sucker for autographs from obscure characters. We all have our collections of "things that don't make sense to others"...right? *cough**cough*Batman Black and White Statues *cough**cough*

Not sure if this is the correct place for this or not. (if not admin remove).

Disney tried to make a "healthy gumbo" and posted a YouTube video showing how to make it. Whatever it was, it was not gumbo and cajuns everywhere gave Disney a hard time about. At some point Disney took the video down, but someone had a little fun with the video and made their own.

I got a good laugh from the whole thing.

Coca Cola Bear is super cute. I'd love to meet him.

He was made by Jim Henson's Creature Shop

Wow that's actually a really nice looking character. Pretty good puppetry at work. And look at that finger articulation!

Well, even though I think many purchases are foolish I spent $125 last trip on an Adventure's Club wall sign - a place that doesn't even exist except in memory - so I try not to judge too harshly.

Unless you collect vinylmation...then I think there's something wrong with you. (For those on the board that take things way too serious: I am kidding.)
