What's a bear gotta do to get a drink around here?

This Thursday evening, like many other denizens of Hayward, Wisconsin, a 125-pound black bear wandered into a local liquor store in search of a six pack, causing a bit of a scene.

While the non-ursine shoppers were ushered out of the store, the bear strolled the aisles for over an hour before winding up in the beer cooler, where authorities administered a breathalyzer test and took him away.


No word on which beer the bear chose, or whether he was a Green Bay Packers or Minnesota Vikings fan.
