Celeb Sighting - Harrison, NJ!

On the way to lunch at Hinze's Deli in Harrison this afternoon, a Bears front office member spotted NJ Ironmen and former US World Cup goalie, Tony Meola making a left hand turn on Frank E. Rogers Ave. Meola attended Kearny High and according to the Ironmen's website, still resides in town.

Ladies Lunching

The ladies of the front office had a special treat today as they each were given a complimentary facial from a Mary Kay representative during the lunch hour. Considering that most days at work are spent in khaki shorts, make up free - it was defiantly a nice change to see everyone all dolled up.

Something Not About Birds...

Do you think your dog is the cutest in the neighborhood???!! Prove it!

On Saturday July 19th, the bears are holding Bark in the Park - and we are looking for the cutest dog we can find to be apart of our "First Fetch" promotion. So, if you think your dog has what it takes, e-mail a picture a few words why to srosman@newarkbears.com. Bark on!

Traveling In Pairs...No Longer a Safe Option..

Just when we thought we had the crazy bird figured out, he (or she) surprises us once again. Two front office members just returned from grabbing a quick bite from Subway on Broad St. Although they were aware of the crazy bird's most recent activities (see below) and witnessed another front office member strategically cross the street to avoid the animal - they pressed on, because they were traveling in a pair and they (stupidly) believed that they would therefore be alright. Well, they thought wrong. Mid conversation, the bird swooped in and hoovered a little too close for comfort. Even after breaking out into a sprint, the crazy bird was able to keep pace, and swooped by again. Thankfully, neither of these two staffers were "buzzed" by the bird - but the situation reveals none the less, that traveling in pairs is no longer a safe option.

The Bird is Back..With a Vengence!!

We haven't seen or heard much from the bird since the storm a few weeks ago, but we always knew that he (or she) was still present. However, over the last two days the bird has reaffirmed it's presence. Three front office members have been attacked since Monday! and the saga continues...

Creeping in the Shadows..

Last night, an unnamed front office member saw this man with a cat on his head in the streets of NYC. Hmmm, does he do ball park appearances??

Hey Kids, It's the Cotton Eye Joe Dance - Steve Boland Returns!
