National Hugging Day: Most Huggable Character is Baymax from Big Hero 6

It is no surprise that this super squishy sweetheart from Big Hero 6 won the National Hugging Day Most Huggable Character. Baymax is a sweet love who is basically a giant balloon and he cares, so of course he’s going to be a great hugger.

Big Hero 6 Baymax Huggable Award

BURBANK, CA, January 21, 2015 – After much deliberation and even more hugging, Baymax, the lovable personal companion robot and star of Walt Disney Animation Studio’s action-packed comedy adventure and Academy Award® Nominated film “Big Hero 6,” was today named Most Huggable Character of 2015 on National Hugging Day™!

The coveted award was presented by the Ambassador of Hugs, Kevin Zaborney, founder and creator of National Hugging Day.™ Baymax humbly accepted the award from his residence in San Fransokyo where he attributed the honor to his “non-threatening, huggable design” and said he looks forward to spending the upcoming year giving and receiving hugs from all.

The Most Huggable Character Award coincides with this month’s National Hugging Day™ held annually on January 21. National Hugging Day™ was created to encourage people around the world show more affection in public. There is only one way you are supposed to celebrate the holiday: offer a hug to anyone and everyone you want.

Past winners of the Most Huggable Awards have included Joan Rivers who wrote after receiving her award, “I’m tempted to start saying ‘Can we hug?’ instead of ‘Can we talk'” alluding to her participating in a telephone company ad; Jeff Ondash (aka Teddy McHuggins); Tessla Queen (bingtopia.com); and Mata Amritanandamayi (Kerela, India known as the “Hugging Saint”).

Big Hero 6 DVD

Over Christmas we took the kids to see Big Hero 6 in the theater. They absolutely loved it and cannot wait to see it again. Well, they won’t have to wait too long because Big Hero 6 is hitting Disney Movies Anywhere on February 3rd and on Blu-Ray/DVD Combo pack on February 24th. This was an amazing movie and I couldn’t wait to see it when it hit theaters but time and circumstance made me have to wait till Christmas to see it. I enjoyed it so very much and love the overall message, the action was incredible, too. I did happen to miss a bunch of Easter Eggs in the movie that had to do with Frozen, yes Frozen. Check this out.
