Help To Find Stuffed Bears, $1000 Reward

Interesting. A couple lost their stuffed animal bears at the Emeryville movie theaters. I guess it holds enough sentimental value that they're offering up $1000 for the safe return of their bears.

These people work with my buddy at Adobe here in SF. I can only imagine with the power of twitter, facebook and other social networking, these little guys will be back with their rightful owners in no time.

$1000 can buy some new toys for your car.

I haven't seen those bears, but I did see a group of furries in downtown San Jose a few days ago.

Too bad I didn't know about this sooner. Would have went over to the theatre. Someone probably found them and gave them to some kids, who apparently wouldn't enjoy it as much as these people. Kind of strange. To each his own

I'm going with internet publicity stunt. To drum up attention for their future bear site.

This was originally going to be a blog dedicated to showcasing the Bears in all of their cuteness. Now out of necessity it has become a way to bring these Bears back home. Come home Bears!!!

I totally agree. It's probably the best spent $1000 on advertising done in a while too.

I'd be cool if they hid the bears around the bay and you could get $100 gift certificates or something for finding them.

It's just Rilakkuma. Who cares?
For $1,000, you can buy an entire pallet at J-Town

maybe a psych experiment for school. How they did the social networking thing seeing who could find the location of all those red weather balloons, but this is probably made up by some local school or something? or the ppl are just really super douchecakes.
