Help us lend a paw and stuff the Shu! Order your teddy bear to fill a seat by November 10th from lrbears.com/lendapaw

GOBEARS!

We're teaming up with Queens University of Charlotte Athletics to 𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙖 𝙥𝙖𝙬 by 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙝𝙪 for the November 21st basketball games! Reduced capacity may mean fewer fans, but it doesn't have to mean empty seats.

Show our teams you're still supporting them by ordering a teddy bear from the link below. We'll place each teddy bear in a seat and even send you a photo of their view of the game!

Proceeds benefit Student Athlete Advisory Committee's Make-a-Wish funding and all teddy bears and lions will be donated to local organizations working with children less fortunate.
