What happens is when the Hitmen score their first goal everyone in attendance tosses teddy bears on the ice, they are then collected. All of the teddy bears that are collected are then given to charities to give out for the Holidays.

While it genuinely believes it’s helping people, pot remains illegal at the federal level and the “stoner” culture often stigmatizes what is otherwise a legitimate operation.

However, Granny Purps is trying to redeem itself in the eyes of the public. For the second year in a row, it’s feeding the less-fortunate by offering an unusual trade — one free joint for every six cans of donated food.
