Jazz Bear FIRED

[Handlogten's Heros]

With the stuff that went down with the Mavs makes me wonder...

Right... I didn't want to go there, but I'm guessing every team went back and started asking questions this summer. Could have been something more innocent than that and they are just hyper sensitive... could have been like a Spence Checketts DUI thing but the timing and tone suggest it wasn't just him getting hurt or too old to do the job.

Jazz Bear probably got #metoo'd

24 years as mascot is unreal. He's got to be about 50 years old now.

Wow what a bummer. Guy was a good mascot, he must have messed up pretty bad to be fired like this.

 

[JazzGal]

How sad! He's been a great mascot and will be missed. I hope he didn't do anything criminal - how do bears survive in prison?

Dang, so you're saying there isn't going to be a bear riding a Harley at the game?

What went down with the Mavs?

Deseret News is reporting its due to a 'rift with the staff' which could mean any number of things. Not sure that's the phrasing that would be used if it were a sexual harassment type thing though.

Good point. That makes it sound more like he told off his boss.

maybe they fired him so he can get severance
