Bear Affair

I saw this and took a picture:
It's an amusement park spin ride called "Bear Affair"

Made in the U.S.A. by Sellner Manufacturing company they claim:

"The giant bears that make up Bear Affair, 'bear' a strong resemblance to a real bear.
The arms, legs, back and tail of each bear are textured to look like real fur."

"Each bear wears colorful bib overalls and a baseball cap. Caps are available with the Bear Affair logo or you can customize them with your own logo. Choose from a red or blue base."

"Decals in the shape of baseball caps and paw prints decorate the arms and base of the ride."

Note #1: You can buy a used Bear Affair for about $28,000.
Note #2: Herbert Sellner invented the Tilt-A-Whirl in 1926.
