Bear kicker gets comeuppance

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A fellow I used to work with in Upper Michigan related this story around a campfire one night. It seems when he was much younger he and some friends decided to go to the local dump to shoot rats. By the way, they had consumed a fair amount of beer beforehand. When they arrived at the dump they noticed a black bear rummaging in the garbage. One of the guys bet one other $5 that he was affraid to go kick the bear in the butt. The bet was on and this guy walks up to the bear and nudges it with his foot and the bear just lets out a little grunt. He comes back looking for his $5 and was told that was no kick so no $5. The guy goes back to the bear and hauls off and kicks him as hard as he could. The bear spins around and takes one swipe at him with his paw laying open his nose which started bleeding quite heavily. They rush him to the local ER and the guy tells the Doc the story leaving nothing out. Doc's comment...."I ought to leave you bleed to death.
