"HAYWARD, Wis. (AP) - Shoppers in a Wisconsin grocery store got an unexpected surprise when a 125-pound black bear wandered inside and headed straight for the beer cooler.

The bear stopped Thursday night at Marketplace Foods in Hayward, about 140 miles northeast of Minneapolis, sauntering through the automatic doors and heading straight for the liquor department.

It calmly climbed up 12 feet onto a shelf in the beer cooler where it sat for about an hour while employees helped evacuate customers and summoned wildlife officials.

Officials from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources tranquilized the animal and took it out of the store. Store workers say the bear seemed content in the cooler and did not consume any alcohol."

Now how do they know for sure? Did they give him a breathalyzer test? Make him stand on one foot and touch his nose? Say the alphabet backwards?

I wanna know!

Probably didn't have to urinate immediately.
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.
