Roast Bear Anyone?

There's a bar owner in Minnesota that's roasting a 180 pound black bear today to show his support for the Packers. Which sounds a lot cooler than it actually is because:

a. The average black bear is between 200-600 pounds. So this bear was either young or had an eating disorder.

b. Bar owner's cousin shot it in like September and then froze it.

c. He can't actually serve any of the meat to his customers because it's unprocessed and that's a State Health Department No-No.

So what seemed like a pretty cool publicity stunt is actually pretty lame. And kind of makes me want to cheer for Da Bears today so that maybe the bear will get the last laugh. (You know, despite being shot, frozen and then roasted and put on display for people to take pictures with but not actually eat.)
