This college mascot could destroy the Earth

It's not every day that we write about college hockey promos, much less ones that are a year and a half old. Then again, it's not every day that you get to see a celestial polar bear destroy satellites, downtown Anchorage and the whole damn moon. My favorite part of this video for the University of Alaska-Fairbanks Nanooks is the note on YouTube that "this is the intended directors cut with the original music choice, rejected by the UAF people for being 'too 80's.' " I'm sorry, was there music playing? I think my senses were too overwhelmed by the awesomeness of a giant, moon-crushing murder bear. (Hat tip to my brother-in-law, who found it on With Leather.)

That is truly hilarious. I wonder what kind of tantrums that bear throws when his team loses a game.

I really really like it. I think the graphics are awesome. I am an athlete and if our opponent team would have this promo, I would be really scared from them. It gives you the feeling that this team will destroy the other team. I really like the first part of the music but the second part does not match well with the graphics so I agree with the comment which says it is being too 80's. I would put some serious music for the second part too...But this promo definitely has some strong impact on the opponent team.
