The yearly battle of behemoths is almost over... Did you vote?! It's not too late to choose a champ! 🥇 #FatBearWeek #Team901 🐻
Clash of the Titans! It’s the 1-time, nearly 1-ton veteran victor 747 vs no-name to big-gains 901. Will you pick 747, the lard-layered Leviathan w/ powerful presence & scars to prove it? Or back the bunyanesque behemoth 901, w/ the bring-it-on bearitude & thicc tree trunk thighs?
