World’s Best Bear, 2023
3rd Place
This Vintage Bear
How They Got Here
Perhaps riding the coattails of the 2023 winner, That Vintage Bear, This Vintage Bear showed, capturing 3rd place and earning more than a Bronze Medal in the Olympics: immortality, through success in a World Famous Sweet Livin’ Productions World’s Best Bear Poll. For such a reason, bear enthusiasts and poll analysts alike are—or at least should be—calling 2023 “The Year of the Vintage Bear.” The fact that the Kodiak Bear was the only non-vintage bear to show, makes its second-place finish all that more impressive. But we cannot dismiss This Vintage Bear’s qualities in praising the group success of the overall vintage bear community. We can see that This Vintage Bear comes from good stock. I mean, just look at this family photo! That is a great family. It just proves something everyone knew, little girls don’t need mothers when they have a great vintage bear, like This Vintage Bear, to help raise them.
Where They Came From
Like That Vintage Bear, and most in the vintage bear community, their origins are obscure and shrouded in mystery. Even when their exact origins are known, their adolescence is often completely unaccounted for, much like the messiahs of old.

Naturally, to show in a World Famous Sweet Livin’ Productions World’s Best Bear Poll is impressive enough. And what this means for the vintage bear community cannot be overstated. Naturally, This Vintage Bear would like to match That Vintage Bear as winner of a World Famous Sweet Livin’ Productions World’s Best Bear Poll—or at least finish second behind That Vintage Bear in order to assert vintage bear dominance in a way never envisioned before, or even now on the Other Internet.
