Oh No!

it was rigged!

only last Saturday I made a post about a bit of fun, the annual Katmai National Park in Alaska Fat Bear Week, well the semi final-results are in, but wait for this, at least 7,000 fraudulent votes were cast! Bear 747 was named the real winner in the semi-finals of the 2022 Fat Bear Week competition after organizers found more than 7,000 fake votes for his opponent, Katmai National Park, which hosts a bracket contest for bears pictured in the Alaskan Park, overturned the election result between Bear 747 and his opponent, Holly, after removing more than 7,000 fraudulent votes, Bear 747 with 37,940 votes to Holly’s 30,430, does this mean that perhaps International cheating has come to Fat Bear Week? The bear, estimated to weigh about 1,400 pounds, was found fishing every day at Brooks Falls between late June and mid-September as it prepared for hibernation, rangers from the national park noted that 747 was one of the dominant bears in the forest, and while bears tend to fight to claim their place, they said that 747 retains its rank ‘by size alone’, the bear was a previous winner of the 2020 Fat Bear Week competition, for the full article have a look here.
