Bear recorded relaxing in hot tub, drinking margarita
Fox News ^ | July 2, 2018 | Nicole Darrah

A bear who couldn't apparently bear the temperatures any longer was recorded lapping up a margarita and hanging in an unheated hot tub at a California home over the weekend -- proving the furry mammals have more in common with humans than science may have taught us.

Mark Hough, of Altadena, filmed the encounter Friday afternoon in which the beer was spotted lazing around his jacuzzi.

The man told The Associated Press that he mistook the bear climbing a fence into his yard as noise coming from his neighbor's.

Probably an undocumented Corona. Hopefully it was capped else it'd be foaming around the unheated jacuzzi. (I miss story editors. Spell check isn't everything.)

“Jose Buervo, he was a friend of mine. He like to drink in my hot tub with a margarita by his side.”

"Jose Cuervo for the shopping list!

I grew up on the Mexican Border (El Paso) back in the 50's and 60's and remember a brand of Mexican Vodka called Oso Negro (black bear). The bottles came with a small plastic bear on a small chain around the bottle neck. Your post reminded me of those plastic bears that dangled from every key chain and handbag zipper in my high school back then.

I’ll betcha that hot tub wasn’t hot.

The two preceding neighbors' hot tubs were too hot and too cold.

If it happened in a suburb of San Francisco and it wouldn’t be news, or probably even viewable.

is this the one where he slid into second base and broke his sunglasses he’d just stole from Eckerts?

Close.

“And then, to prove he was a badass he ate my sunglasses. And I was really pissed off....’cuz I had just stolen them from Eckerts!”....
.
.
.
“Well he downed about 8 of those jugs and commenced to doing the ‘bear dance’. Two steps a jump and slide into second base and break your leg - so simple like the boogaloo - plumb evaded me.”

I might have misremembered some of the bear dance bit - but after numerous college parties we had the song memorized. On the album cover Jimmy is wearing a cast - so several songs refer to his broken leg. I’m not sure the “break your leg” part is on the original song.

The song was written by somebody called something like “The late, great Lord Richard Buckly - an old jazz musician from New Orleans.”
