When it comes to major sporting events there’s really no “wrong” way to celebrate–that is, not until the health department gets called in. Let this little bit of news serve as a lesson to all potentially overzealous sporting fans out there: unless you’re playing, say, the Anaheim Ducks or the Florida Marlins, it’s not recommended that you celebrate by cooking up the mascot of the opposing team.
An enthusiastic bar owner in St. Paul, Minnesota announced his plans to support the Green Bay Packers by cooking up an 180 pound black bear and serving it to customers. The state’s health department rejected the plan of Tiffany Sports Lounge owner Blake Montpetit, stating that customers can take photographs next the dead bear on the pig roaster, but they can’t actually eat the thing.
The bar was shot by Montpetit’s cousin in Wisconsin during the state’s bear hunting season last fall.
