This is from a halftime show at a Russian hockey game in November and we’re just now seeing it, but THE WORLD MUST KNOW ABOUT HOCKEY BEARS.

IT IS A BEAR ON ICE SKATES. ON ICE. PLAYING HOCKEY.

Is there anything more terrifying and miraculous and wonderful than a GOSH DANG BEAR ON ICE SKATES? I submit to you that there is not.
