Bear guzzles 36 beers, passes out at campground SEATTLE, Washington (Reuters) -- A black bear was found passed out at a campground in Washington state recently after guzzling down three dozen cans of a local beer, a campground worker said on Wednesday. "We noticed a bear sleeping on the common lawn and wondered what was going on until we discovered that there were a lot of beer cans lying around," said Lisa Broxson, a worker at the Baker Lake Resort, 80 miles (129 kilometers) northeast of Seattle. The hard-drinking bear, estimated to be about two years old, broke into campers' coolers and, using his claws and teeth to open the cans, swilled down the suds. It turns out the bear was a bit of a beer sophisticate. He tried a mass-market Busch beer, but switched to Rainier Beer, a local ale, and stuck with it for his drinking binge. Wildlife agents chased the bear away, but it returned the next day, said Broxson. They set a trap using as bait some doughnuts, honey and two cans of Rainier Beer. It worked, and the bear was captured for relocation. A friend had posted this on one of the other forums I go to, what do you think of the incedent?
i read that. it's on the aim news thing. very funny. at first i thought 1 bear took on 36 other bears.
that is cool as shit; it would be real sweet to meet the bear, but more likely I would end up becoming good drinking buddies with the bear, and have to be hauled off to jail for giving the bear the beer
