Memphis Grizzlies Honor Baby In Bear Suit At Halfcourt
During a timeout in the Memphis Grizzlies' opener last night, mascot Grizz brought a baby to halfcourt while The Lion King's "Circle of Life" played. Now "Circle of Life" is playing in your head as you read this.
The baby—the Grizzlies emcee's daughter—was nonplussed, which is better than her crying. Consider the ceremony a success.
That's a good sports baby.
