Bear Attacks Man at SC State Fair - Uses Ladder as Weapon

October 10, 2013  •  54 Comments

 I somehow feel that my life is now more complete because I saw a bear attack a human with a ladder. It was "part of the show" on Tuesday, the opening night of the 2013 SC State Fair and the absurdity that a bear would need a weapon in a fight with a human flipped the Saturday morning cartoon switch in my brain. I guess that's kind of the idea with the fair. Acres of absurdity.

This is my buddy Cameron who accompanied me to the party. He's been talking about the fair all summer and hadn't been since he was a little kid. I figured we'd change that. Within five minutes we found the giant turkey legs.

Cameron's favorite ride was the Matterhorn.
