What a grizzly pun. It's unbearable.

I'd take the kids to go do that if I had the time & money. That would be kind of awesome, at least as long as none of us is eaten by a bear. That would put a damper on things.

The universe is laughing behind your back: It turns out that there's a whole tourism industry in this town during October when the bears start congregating around town. There are group tours to go around and see them.

I went with my Mom a couple of years ago. It was incredible. Those bears are BIG. And very hungry. They would have loved to crack open the tundra buggy we were in to feast on some yummy tourists. One big male stood up on his hind legs and stuck his nose in a open window hoping for just a little taste.
That main street in Churchill is extremely wide - there's seriously nowhere to hide if a bear goes after you. This guy is very lucky.
