Since I don't live anywhere near the place, can someone tell me if like the restaurant is located off of a main road right close to a DG park/course where it is frequented by DGers regularly or even if the owner of the place is a DGer or something? I appreciate the fact that it's in the commercial, but it seems like there has to be come relation of DG to the restaurant because there is no way a marketing person coming up with an idea of a restaurant is just randomly going to say "hey lets use bears playing a sport the greater majority of people know nothing about and the restaurant I am trying to advertise has nothing to do with it either"
Agreed, I'm glad they used people who could actually play.Black Bear Diner also sponsors local tournaments. I will choose them over another Diner just because of their support of disc golf. I also like that you could tell whoever was wearing the bear costume actually knew what they were doing.
:hfive: Maybe I can pick up a 9/10 bear suit in trade for some plastic in the MP.Saw this and it is awesome. Good depiction of the sport. You don't have to wait on every hole if you are wearing a bear suit.

Wow! Its like they treated disc golf like any other sport/game/past time.....EQUALITY!
It is a chain of restaurants all over the west coast, not a single restaurant. And they have no relationship to disc golf or a specific course. Their commercials all have a similar theme: someone in a bear suit doing something fun, then eating. Good publicity for the sport! :thmbup:
Not 100% sure, but it looks like it might have been shot at Riverbend Park in Oroville, CA.
