Teddy was tossed.

Surfside RV Resort, Parksville BC (2 stars)

Lee notes the Oceanside Generals had a Teddy Bear Toss at their home game tonight. It took them a couple of minutes to score, but then a collection of Teddy Bears hit the ice. That was a nice reminder of games long gone when the Oil Kings would see 12,000 plus bears on the ice.

And yes, the Generals won again 4-1.

What a great day! Off we went to the Oceanside Generals VIJHL game, with visiting team the Peninsula Panthers. We had our Teddy Bear ready to be tossed onto the ice. Perhaps, because it was a Saturday night and the roads were slick, but attendance was only 324. I haven't found a count of Teddy Bears.
