Vernon's interaction with the younger fans puts him streets ahead on most clubs' mascots who seem to just stand about. When our youngest great-grandchild is with us he always tries to go to the front of the CE at half time to high five the bear. When he came back on one occasion, his grandma asked him what Vernon had said, to which the lad replied "He didn't say anything, he's a _bear_!"
