To Come Bearing Treats

Maybe this has been around longer than this year, but I only noticed it a couple of weeks ago when I attended the Oogie Boogie Bash.  The giant wooden grizzly bear outside of the entrance to Grizzly River Run has an extra accessory during Halloween Time.  Much like its extra ugly Christmas sweater during the holidays, it seems the bear enjoys celebrating Halloween too, because he has a most sizeable Mickey Mouse candy bucket, and he holds it rather proudly and with a satisfied smirk.  I suppose this shouldn't be too surprising.  If Winnie the Pooh has taught us anything, it's that bears like honey, and honey is a sweet, so is it any shock that bears might also like candy treats?
