It’s almost time for the Oil Kings 2018 Teddy Bear Toss!
It’s one of the most anticipated games of the year as the Edmonton Oil Kings host the Kamloops Blazers for their annual Teddy Bear Toss presented by The Brick at Rogers Place on Saturday, December 8 at 7:00 PM MT!
For the 12th straight season, fans are asked to show their holiday spirit by bringing a new or gently-loved teddy bear to throw onto the ice when the Oil Kings score their first goal of the game.
All bears collected will be donated to 630 CHED Santas Anonymous and gifted to children in the Greater Edmonton Area just in time for the holidays.
But don’t forget – to ensure your stuffed toy remains cute and able to be cuddled, please package them in a clear plastic bag prior to coming to the game. If you forget, bags will be offered upon entry.
The Oil Kings will once again sport commemorative jerseys for the special game, which will be auctioned off via silent auction during the game to the left of the main entrance near Section 102.
