What scares you? Things that go bump in the night? That movie (Motel Hell) - or may it's the scary bear on I-75. Don't judge me.
The Scary Bear On I-75...just look at it!
You're judging me, aren't you? I remember the first time I was driving home from downtown Detroit and I saw this giant teddy bear just staring at me. Now I'll admit it's a beautiful message from our friends at Autoliv (and YES, you should always wear a seat belt). But that bear scares me.
Five Reasons I'm Freaked Out By The Scary Bear on I-75
- It's left hand is on the release of the seat belt, like it's waiting to unbuckle - jump off the sign and eat Detroit (or at least my car).
- Giant teddy bears start out happy and cuddly, then things get weird at night and the next thing you know it's stomping down Woodward. Don't think so? Remember the stay-puft Marshmallow man?
- Those eyes are always watching you. ALWAYS.
- It's a Bear...in Detroit. We don't like Bears here - I'm thinking it's from Chicago, and will hop off the billboard to go to the NFL draft.
- Hasn't ANYONE seen Five Nights At Freddy's? Seriously.
Now if you're really into scary stuff - we put together a list of scary movie locations around the country.
The Scary Bear On I-75 - confession from Big Jim
When I was a kid my dad bought me a ventriloquist dummy (and the record to learn how to be a ventriloquist). It had red hair and freckles, and I loved it...for about a month. Then a movie trailer came on TV...remember the movie "Magic"?
That was it. I was convinced it was going to kill me - so I put the dummy in the closet and every night I'd talk to it..."go ahead and do it, I know you're going to get me". Here's the weird part. I don't remember getting rid of it, but one day it was gone. I was a kid, and that scared the hell out of me. Just like the scary bear on I-75.
