Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
We've long known people love the iconic big blue bear that peeks into the Colorado Convention Center (it's officially titled "I See What You Mean"). Blue bear miniatures have been selling like hotcakes, and, as we uncovered in a tell-all interview, the big blue bear even recently appeared on Good Morning America. But, as the photos shown here and after the jump suggest, maybe blue-bear adoration includes a love that dares not speak its name. We found these unsightly images on the blog "ZzzZzzZzz." Turns out the author and his colleagues stopped by Denver on thier spring break last year, took one look at the big blue bear and immediately became inspired to sexually violate the poor beast - or at least pretend to. Is this just a freak occurrence, or does this majestic blue creature inspire similar carnal longings in other passersby? Are there more of these debased photos out there, a fetid stockpile of unabashed ursine shagging? We're not sure if we want to find out. - Joel Warner
