September 5 Baylor Bears introduced a new way to celebrate an interception: the player who made the play is dressed on the sideline in a huge brown fur coat with a bear head. They named it all very seriously Turnover Bear. The player who took the ball from the opponent goes to the sideline and there turns... into a huge bear.
They put on him a giant brown fur coat with a bear head — it looks as if the footballer suddenly left the stadium and ended up on the set of a very strange fairy tale. 🐻
And the debut of the costume was eventful: On September 5 in the game against Auburn, Baylor's defense made three interceptions at once. So Turnover Bear had to appear again and again.
Baylor itself eventually lost 16:17, but they definitely already won one nomination — for the most charming interception celebration in American football.
Now the formula is extremely simple:
took the ball → put on the bear → became a legend. 😄
