One minute, you’re chanting “Fear the deer!” with 30 other patrons in a bar outside Milwaukee.  It’s game seven of the NBA playoffs, and your beloved Milwaukee Bucks are squaring off with the Atlanta Hawks.  Then, all of a sudden, you’re given new reason to fear the deer as a pair of actual bucks come leaping into the fray, smashing through a pair of glass doors and rampaging through the bar!

Jay Ouellette, the general manager of the Stout Ale House in Menomonie, Wisconsin, is more amused than frightened or angered by the event.  “I think they just lost their bearings and got startled,” he said.  “I’ve seen this happen on TV before, but I never thought it would happen around here.  It was pretty amusing.”  The deer didn’t cause much damage aside from the doors they broke, and patrons and staff were able to safely wrestle the two animals to the ground to prevent any further injuries to either patron or animal.

Deer may look all cute and cuddly, but as you can see, they can be very dangerous.  Those two deer effortlessly caused thousands of dollars in damage, and they could’ve seriously hurt someone (or been seriously hurt) had staff not thought quickly and pounced.   For the record, the Bucks lost to the Hawks in that seventh game, so the deer support made no difference.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
