A new mascot will join the ranks of in-arena entertainers when the Salt Lake City Stars play host to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers on Saturday. Buster, an ursine crowd-pleaser with an icy gaze, a whole lot of spunk and a famous cousin in the Utah Jazz mascot Jazz Bear, is set to become the Stars’ first-ever mascot.
Per an announcement from the team, the “engaging and fun-loving bear” will be making his (her?) debut during the second timeout of the first quarter at the Lifetime Activities Center-Bruin Arena on the Salt Lake Community College Taylorsville Campus.
