A&W Announces 'Polarizing' Bear Mascot Will Wear Pants In Hilarious Troll
A soft drink company’s joking tweet about its mascot’s clothing choices apparently caught Fox Business with its pants down.
On Tuesday, A&W Root Beer announced on Twitter that Rooty the Great Root Bear would start wearing trousers.
The post appeared to be a jesting reference to a recent decision by chocolate brand M&M’s, which put its “spokescandies” on “indefinite pause” after conservative types like Fox News’ Tucker Carlson griped that the green M&M character was now wearing tennis shoes instead of go-go boots.
The A&W tweet read, in part: “America, let’s talk. Since 1963, Rooty the Great Root Bear has been our beloved spokesbear. We knew people would notice because he’s literally a 6-foot tall bear wearing an orange sweater.”
It added, “But now we get it — even a mascot’s lack of pants can be polarizing.”

Do you think the Charmin Bears and the Geico Gecko should wear pants too?
