White Bear Mitsubishi in White Bear Lake, Mi thought it would be a good idea to bring their mascot out for their latest commercial and they were wrong. The guy in the white bear suit kept falling on the ice at Mariucci Arena in Minneapolis where the University of Minnesota hockey team plays their games. You see the problem is that his feet were made for walking on land and not on ice. His slippery paws, made him slip and slide on the slippery surface. So much so, that almost every time he took a step, he fell on his butt. I thought White Bears knew how to walk on frozen water, guess not. Not only can’t he walk on it, he can’t he get even get a pat on the back with going face first. They saved the best plop for last, so make sure to watch it all the way through for that one.
There are two positive things for the guy in the suit, one we don’t see his face and two the costume gives him plenty of padding to protect his fall.
When it comes to White Bear Mitsubishi, they are get more free publicity for these outtakes then they are for the final ad. Maybe they should do all their commercials from there? Granted they would probably need a new actor after each ad they shoot there. Or at least a hefty raise, you know for each time they are raised up from the ice after falling down on it.
