Mystery teddy bears popping up in South Boston

Mystery teddy bear in South Boston

Eileen Murphy spotted a teddy bear on a Harley in South Boston tonight. Earlier, she ran across a trio of bears at Carson Beach. A couple days ago, bears appeared on benches along Pleasure Bay.

Is this a hipster thing?

it's a Beanie Baby, the old and not-creepy kind.

Witness bearing?

There were 4 teddy bears, one on each bench, near Kelly's Landing in Southie yesterday. They had Valentine themed sayings on them.

Eileen needs glasses. That's a rice burner, far from an American made bike.

i didn't know people were legitimately still using that term.

You mean using "legitimately" like it's some kind of meaningless intensifier? Unfortunately they are.

"smile"

Maybe someone's just trying to spread some smiles around. I'm OK with that.

Yes, it is a nice touch for a change. I far prefer this to people leaving piles of old stuffed animals as a shrine at a murder scene when the murder victim was a grown man. I never got the connection.
