Polar Beverages - Orson The Bear

Orson The Bear

A polar bear named Orson has been the company's mascot since 1902. Next to the company's billboard near I-290 in Worcester, there is a large inflatable version of Orson, which can be seen smiling and "waving" to passersby, who will also notice that the oversized bear is tied down securely by wire, not only to keep the bear in place during rough weather, but also to prevent theft. Orson has sometimes been stolen by local fraternities as a prank.

Famous quotes containing the word bear:

    “Well then, it’s Granny speaking: ‘I dunnow!
    Mebbe I’m wrong to take it as I do.
    There ain’t no names quite like the old ones, though,
    Nor never will be to my way of thinking.
    One mustn’t bear too hard on the newcomers,
    But there’s a dite too many of them for comfort....’”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
