We officially have our WINNER!

Congratulations to Evan "Buck" Buckley of 911!

He won the final poll with 51% of the final vote, a narrow victory over our second place firefighter, Smokey Bear!

Look how proud he is of that win! You earned it, Buck!

Thank you everyone for voting and participating! Hopefully I'll be back to do this again in the future! 💜

okay smokey bear! basically i saw non- americans having questions about this little guy on the poll and thought why not.

so he is the mascot for the US forest service for their campaign about wildfire prevention! the campaign was conceived in the early 40s as a result in a fire started in los padres national forest due to fallout from ww2 and the realization that there was a lack of firemen due to the draft, so the general public needed to do their part in protecting forests. the original animal mascots were characters from Bambi (1942) and were such a success that the campaign decided to create their own (as well as only having the bambi character rights for a year). and a bear just, made sense!

and then! in 1950 during a forest fire in new mexico a crew of firefighters rescued a bear cub that was severely injured and he was dubbed smokey, he became a national news story and the public fell in love with him.

smokey the bear continues to be a public service figure, and he has an attitude which i find hilarious but guilting works 🤷🏻

have an evolution of posters

you can find more and radio and video clips here. personally i do not like the current iteration of the depiction but i don’t work for the ad council🙄😤

anyway, it is my favorite propaganda campaign because a) cute sassy bear and b) actually a good cause. it is the longest running public service advertising campaign and will be turning 80 next year!

and remember…only you can prevent wildfires.

eddie didn’t count the seconds that buck was dead just to lose this poll

[finalgirlkateausten]

@firefighterbracket propoganda bc I thought I would enjoy a Smokey sweep until I saw Shay actually losing and got un-BEAR-ably sad. Shoutout to everyone in these tags who is manifesting with me

Weewoo fans please consider: a Buck/Shay final would be SO sexy and chaotic like. Don’t we want the blonde disaster gays to face off??? Don’t we all want that??????

In conclusion: LET’S GO LESBIANS.

The correct answer was fourth-generation firefighter Bobby Nash.

both of Kelly Severide's girls are going up against each other and I might not survive

HELLO EVERYONE! WE ARE REOPENING GENTLE GIANT SWAG, FOR THE SUMMER EDITION

Submit as many characters as you won’t but don’t spam submit a singular character over and over again

Kronk, the previous winner, has been BANNED from the summer edition.

If you’re questioning a character, write why you think they should win in the ask section (you can be anon) and we will make a poll, similar to @worstqueerbaittournament

Characters already added are Jonathan Joestar (Jojo’s bizarre adventure), Kanji tatsumi (persona), Milla Vodello (psychonauts), and Dedue Molinaro (fire emblem), and Subject Delta (bioshock)

The Iron Giant, and Baymax (big hero 6kr will also return for being the runner ups

Despite that, you can submit these characters if you want to, if you want them to be in a more intense battle.

Nothing from a controversial franchise like Harry Potter

No ocs or real people or MCYT people, dogs are fine however

If needed, I may have to do two brackets like in the dad battle one. Though it depends.

Since I’m also the dad council, just use the code of conduct I used there. Which I will post in a few minutes after this is up

I will close the form on may 20th

The grand final of the spring edition
