Jeff Ondash, who sought the squeezes under the costumed alter ego Teddy McHuggin, broke the record on Saturday night outside the Paris Las Vegas hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip.
"When you hug somebody, they all walk away from each other smiling," Ondash said. "They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away; a hug a day - it`s just fun."
