After the game, the meat will go his cousin's party in Somerset, Wis.
Roasting Da Bear
Montpetit says he planned to serve the meat to customers, but the state health department rejected the plan because the meat is unprocessed. Instead, customers can take photos with the roasting bear.
ST. PAUL, Minn. — A sports bar owner in Minnesota is showing his support for the Green Bay Packers in this weekend's game against the Chicago Bears in a very literal way — by roasting a bear.
Blake Montpetit, the coowner of Tiffany Sports Lunge in St. Paul, says he plans to cook a 180-pound black bear in a pigroaster over hickory and charcoal on Sunday. He says his cousin shot it in northern Wisconsin during bear hunting season, which runs in September and October, and then froze it.
Snow thwarts suspects' escape
Prosecutors announced robbery and armed criminal action charges Friday against 18-year-old Darion O. Page of Kansas City, a 17-year-old and a 16-year-old.
— you guessed it — they got stuck in the snow themselves.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Three teens accused of robbing motorists stuck in the snow have been caught after
The Kansas City Star reported that police found the teens stuck in a snowdrift early Thursday morning.
The victims' credit cards were among the items found in their vehicle.
Court documents say the 17-year-old denied participating in the robberies and told police that all he did was drive.
The documents say Page admitted being present, but he blamed the holdups on the 16-year-old. The Star says that teen declined to make a statement.
