Strip Club Applicant Has Grizzly Past

Wait - "dozens of students paid $10 each" and three of them won $1,000 each? Even if we assume a dozen dozen, that's only $1,440 from the door against $3,000 paid out for prizes! So the guy's dumb enough to let drunk people wrestle a live, unmuzzled bear in his bar AND dumb enough to LOSE money doing it? So awesome.

My biggest ethical concern is for the bear. When the bear beats a student, what does the bear win? $1000 worth of fish chum? A pic-a-nic basket made of gold?

Aha, ahahahahaha! What happened to the students who *didn't* pin the bear? I notice they're not mentioned here...Oh god. How drunk would you have to be? Wrestling a bear is never, ever a good idea.

I can see that building from my bedroom window and I can also hear the music that comes out of it. I'm really not too enthused about drunk, slobbering, horny douchebags parking in front of my house to go support this idiot's business.

this douchebag has some serious bad karma

You may call me dubious. I can't see a (probably) drunk person pinning a 700 pound bear. And with his teeth and claws, and not muzzled. I couldn't get that drunk, and I used to do some crazy shit when I used to drink. I sometimes wonder why I'm still alive.

And what the hell is "donkey diving"?

Bears and strippers? Excellent combo. The only thing better is Russian bears playing ice hockey.

@TimH - What about all the strippers who'll be lining up on that sidewalk in their stage outfits to sneak a cigarette, now that you can't smoke inside?

$10 for bear wrestling? how much do i have to pay for twink wrestling?

at last and about time! some real night-life for PDX!
well-fed bears and chastened drunks - who could ask for more?

the taxes this business pays should just about cover the expenses for the building inspection, don't you think?

. . . and that's what you get for living there in the first place

Eric Fruits has a Ph.D. in economics, but is actually a professor in the Urban Studies & Planning department at PSU.
