Lets play polar bear

2009 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

It't late on a Friday night in a college town. The bars have just closed and you still want some fun. Do you A) go to someone’s house and continue to party B) go home and sleep it off or C) start a new drinking game called polar bear.

Our intrepid future DA recipients decided to go with C. So at 2 am they decided it would be a good idea to jump on an ice chunk and float down the river. Now this river is fun to float down in the summer, however in the winter when it only takes a few minutes for hypothermia to set in it must be a blast.

But wait, they had a plan and cell phones. What the plan was would be interesting to hear. As for the cell phone, I don't think they work well under water.

Apparently the local police and fire dept had more sense and rescued our would be award winners. Oh well there is always next year guys

"We had cell phones"... Famous last words! I bet their big plan was to call 911 when they finally did realize they were in serious trouble. Thanks, Regie!
