Vancouver Giants YouTube Challenge (Teddy Bear Toss 2011)

[Th3DigitalWand3r3r]

Cool! lol

[chelseagerbrandt]

those 12 jerks who disliked this suck!!!!!!!!

[damama55]

Hey, looks like we did it. Over 50,000. Wonder if they will double their donation if they reach 100,000?? AWESOME ! ! ! Merry Christmas everyone.

[sctyp33]

I wonder why the other team wouldn't help out with this? First time I've seen this....Wow

[t000dle000]

@sctyp33 and @ejacinto82 The Portland Winter Hawks have been doing this for MANY years. I suspect lots of jr hockey clubs do it.  If you've never been to a game that features a teddy bear toss, it is an amazing site. The visiting team always exits (or does from what I've seen opposing teams do in Portland) and lets the home team have the glory, knowing they'll be doing (or have already done) the same thing on their home ice.

[ejacinto82]

Yeah what happens if it makes it to 100,000? will you double the donation?

[dvusful]

@ejacinto82 That's exactly my thoughts as well. Let's hope they see this and do so afterall, it is the time for giving. :) Merry Christmas everyone!

[Filmthis1212]

should have made it 100,000 views.

[batgrenade1]

I love how they have all 4 jerseys at the beginning. Go Giants!!

[AnimeManMcc]

let it snow (bears) let it snow (bears) let it snow the bears

[msmudbay]

Think of the head injuries! Poor little bears...

[ogtsui]

why would u do it right in the middle of the game? ...why not just wait till the intermission so the game doesnt get delayed??

[rickpog]

I just got this video from Warsaw- Poland. I am sending back to Poland to my friends and my family here in Vancouver, .....good job Giants .

[Sparkleten]

That was absolutely amazing!!! Will look forward to this event!

[jillybeanc]

I love to see the tough hockey players with an armful of bears, so cute!

[xthefunnydudex]

the 8 people who disliked this video aren't from Vancouver..they know that their city either 1) doesn't have a hockey team or 2) no one who has the guts to donate to a charity!

[stillpunk1419]

NO BEARS WERE INJURED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO

[goodL8ter]

Am I crazy or is that a lot of teddy bears?

[freddy4142]

Keep up the good work

[SuperMarmee]

I just got this email in Australia:O

This is a great way to get people to give to the kids at Christmas:) not many people like to hand over money but a teddy bear for a kid, why not!!!

[johnkelsey18]

go for 100,000!!!

[Quenziekinz]

Well they made it! :P

[giantpsl]

A ‘Giant’ thank you to everyone who viewed and shared this video – seeing us reach our goal in only 4 days is beyond our wildest expectations! Thank you as well to our friends at White Spot, CKNW and The Province for their generosity and all the hard work they do in our communities. Please continue to view and share this video leading up to Christmas so that we can keep spreading the word about these two great causes. And if you haven’t made a donation yet, we encourage you to do so today!

[boog721]

[artsieangie]

brought a tear to my eye! so amazing!

[watsonwilly]

I am from the US and right now living in Germany working for the US Army in sports. I have been to several Teddy Bear Toss games and none compare to the giving of Canadian teams and their fans. I have gladly posted this on my Facebook page. Best of luck and GREAT job!

[Mspenguinchill]

I went to the teddy bear toss twice it was awesome :)

[MegTidwell]

<3

[BeatIesfan]

Shared! 

[ang8884]

[lindzypinzy]

Looks like your almost there!

[dmccann100]

This is awesome! I am getting from all over the country now it is circulating like crazy you will hit 50,000.00 or more by Christmas day for sure!

[RealBadSeed]

Good cause, way to go guys!

[EdnaxScissorhands]

Baha James Henry sat a seat ahead of me in Bio 11. He's a nice guy

[youbou70]

What a great idea!

[audrey1552]

I love the responce to the teddy bear toss. Years ago I lived in the B.C. Protestant Orphans Home which is now the Cridge in Victoria. Each year CKNW would ask us what we wanted for Christmas and would get what ever we wanted and also give us a $30.00 gift certificate. That was back in 1945. I didn't realize they were still going. Thanks also to White Spot.

[sandclan54]

Thanks to retired sports icon Garry Raible and ex-business guru Russ Byth for sending me this link.

[MissRWeasley]

I absolutely LOVE the teddy bear toss!! Gonna watch the video again! I hope you guys reach the 50,000!

[tyee4u]

Nice work boys. Thanks to Steve Fera for forwarding the link to me!

[hagasteinar]

Thanks George!

[RockoSDMF]

Great game, and great to see a large crowd come out for it.

[reyan72]

thanks to greg

[jacsis17]

I love this, the people of British Columbia are the best, I so miss it!

[mgailthiessen]

What on earth is there to dislike about this video -- or the reason for it? I do NOT understand.

[netballfan79]

This is Great Idea!!!

[bournejamie]

Thanks Seafair for directing me here!

[epicskater1]

I wish I could have gone to this game. I went last year and it is amazing! I will definately be there next year! Goodluck guys!

[Nanjkm]

Merry Christmas, way to go, the more Teddy's the merrier, You'll top the 50,000! Congrats Giants!

[bitsvince]

Wow I shared this yesterday and there was only 311 views!!!! Now its over 23,000!!!! Great job :)

[Andragon90]

This is awesome. Great job, Giants!

[MJMyrna]

I used to live in Vancouver and must admit to missing the occasional White Spot burger. Glad you guys are doing this. I'm sure you'll have more than 50,000 views by Christmas.

[hairspraykin]

Neil Manning is a true Hero.

[carebr32]

GREAT Cause !

[kochaboy]

i don't understand why people dislike this video, how much of a scrooge can you be!

[beaman444]

@kochaboy I think the site has had 9 dyslexic visitors. Or ... is that a 6?

[gogskgo]

@kochaboy you know what's also bad? ppl who take this video and post it on their own channel

[brandkid]

I totally support this, but for whatever reason they don't reach 50,000, they should donate anyway. Sounds like just as good of a reason to donate - because you can :D

[spagslax]

beauty flow raging through this entire video

[lafayette1982]

merry christmas from Oman! forwarding this to everyone I know, good cause and looks like fun, never seen this before!

[Rowena4364]

great cause, you guys are awesome!

[itsCARLDOUGLAS]

Lovely stuff :)

[Paxenarion]

If you get 1 million views before X-mas, will they donate more money then?? I hope so ;D I'm passing it forward to my friends on facebook!! Merry Christmas Giants from Sweden! Let's all join in and spread some Christmas Magic :D

[lincon127]

[MegaShooter1991]

who would dislike this video cold hearted people no doubt

[h0twire15]

For those of you who haven't seen a video in the midst of going viral, read the Uploader's Comment. All you commenters sound so dumb when the explanation is right there.

[xxxzer0z]

738 likes with 311 views.

It's way more than 140%

[ang8884]

i noticed that as well said 311 this morning and again now at 4pm

[BelaFlorentina]

The video has shown 311 views all day. I think something is wrong with the counter.

[frenchcurve49]

Thanks, Michael. We Love Ya!!!

[sf49erfan78]

Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas to all...

[gregsalter]

The "311 count" is a long-standing bug with YouTube. Don't worry, it will catch up.

[teddi44]

why aren't the views being counted?? it's been at 311 since yesterday...or is it my comp...?

[h0twire15]

@teddi44 Read the uploader's comment.

[InnerGeekProductions]

I use to be on the Vancouver Giants, until I took a teddy bear to the knee.

[ryguy10195]

Giants!!!!!!

[651schoolmom]

I just shared it on my facebook from my daughters page

[chadha69]

Right on, keep up the good work!

[gmikoner]

How is it going to get 50000 views when the counter is stuck at 311?

[SilentEcho8]

@gmikoner The number freezes for a few hours. But the views still count. In a few hours you'll see all the views.

[strykersmamma]

Vancouver Giants Teddy Bear Toss

and share the video now.

[strykersmamma]

Give your support for this great cause :)

[MrKendros]

front page view on says 10,195 views now....looks like Kulak's goal is too hot for YouTube.

[Davio88]

The 2 dislikes are from the team that lost.

[Alex010995]

Good work boys...and Michael in sharing some happiness this Christmas season. Happy Christmas everyone! I'm the 311 viewer : )

[hellyeah268]

How come there are more likes than the views :O

[LizaLoveful]

Thank you Michael Bublé! Great idea! Anyone who dislikes this video is a Scrooge.

[NATASHAPESTKA94]

how can anyone dislike a video like this? it's helping people who really need. you 2 should feel very ashamed

[HOBOLAT]

How can 2 people dislike this video!?!?

[TheAmZ34]

[NATASHAPESTKA94]

[martyjay1970]

Sharing on all my friends lists, Well done to all the Vancouver and other teams that gladly interrupt their games for a good cause. Please keep up the good work.

[divalicious604]

Sharing everywhere I can! Great cause :)

[elliebabe134]

shared it here in gloucester .ENGLAND good luck ......

[AmericanskBlatte]

Canadiens sharing video clips thats like asking Canadiens to play hockey! Thankfully, we have a Swede her to help out!

[OshawaMary]

This was shared to me (Ontario) and I've shared it on to New Brunswick & Nova Scotia. Coast to coast now - so I sure hope you guys make your goal - good luck!

[hellbound64]

who would dislike this??

[Vespur]

Directed here from Facebook, good luck boys.

[0ldtimeh0ckey]

Also good on James Henry putting up $100 per Giants goal Friday night vs. Portland. $500 is a fairly large chunk of change for a Junior player to put up. And when Jon Blum saw this on Twitter he said he would match it. WTG guys!

[AtooZ17]

HERE TO HELP!

[ilikeblazin]

view, reset router & view again!

[rawb42]

share it everywhere guys...let make this come true.

[jaxiebabe]
