After getting locked in a convenience store cooler a man decides to stay and drink beer
There are worse places to get trapped than a walk-in cooler filled to the brim with bottles of beer, but very few people would stay there voluntarily.
A very lucky unlucky 38-year-old man in Wisconsin decided to take advantage of the binge drinking possibilities, according to police. The man’s name was not released but police said he made a stop at Kwik Trip convenience store Tuesday to buy some beer but got stuck in the cooler when it was locked at 11:50 p.m.
Temperatures can reach 32 degrees, but still the man weathered on for a cold brew.
When the workers reopened the walk-in cooler the next day, the man left the store without paying for an 18 ounce bottle of beer and three cans of malt liquor. He also knocked over a stack of 30-packs breaking open three cases.
Police gave the man a misdemeanor citation for retail theft. I guess you could call this a missed hopportunity.
