Man Eats Raw Duck Before Undies Save Him
22 minutes ago
ROGERS, Ark. - There's a reason Mom says to always have a fresh pair of underwear. The Rogers city attorney learned this week that it's to attract rescue helicopters.
Ben Lipscomb found himself lost in the flooded backwoods of Bayou Meto this week while duck hunting with his Labrador retriever, Josey Wales.
He only managed to make it out by tying his white briefs to the end of his gun barrel and waving them at an Arkansas State Police helicopter.
Decked out in full camouflage hunting gear, Lipscomb was practically invisible as the helicopter made several passes at dusk.
"They had passed over me a couple of times," he told the Morning-News of Northwest Arkansas after he was safe and sound back at his City Hall desk. "I knew I had to do something to get their attention."
Anticipating a cold night in the wilderness, Lipscomb drank dirty bayou water and ate a raw duck breast before he was spotted.

Lipscomb drank dirty bayou water and ate a raw duck breast before he was spotted.Going along with a theme based on the stories title, was it the bayou water or the raw duck meat that made him break out in spots?

Lipscomb drank dirty bayou water and ate a raw duck breast before he was spotted. What happens at the deer camp STAYS at the deer camp.

Better than having to eat your own fingers, plus it gets harder with each passing day!
