The annual event involves fans throwing teddy bears onto the ice during one of the game’s intermissions. After the stuffed animals are collected, they are donated to Four Diamonds children.
In previous seasons, Penn State has sold custom teddy bears for the event, with proceeds also going to THON. According to a team spokesperson, fans can bring their own gently used/new teddy bears this year, and the Hockey Valley Team Shop will also have them for sale. Currently, the team doesn’t have plans to sell an official teddy bear for the event.
