    Bobcat walks into Arizona bar, attacks patrons

    ASSOCIATED PRESS • March 26, 2009

    COTTONWOOD, Ariz. — A bobcat has attacked three people in the central Arizona community of Cottonwood, including two men who were bitten by the animal after it wandered inside a bar.

    Officers called to the Chapparal Bar arrived to find the bobcat in the parking lot, where they shot and killed it.

    Tests were ordered to determine if the animal was rabid. It wasn’t clear how seriously the victims had been wounded.

    Cottonwood police say the animal attacked Monday when it scratched a woman who thought she had hit it with her car. Then police got a report of a bobcat acting aggressively toward a woman outside a Pizza Hut.

    About 11 p.m. came the call from the bar that a bobcat was inside as patrons climbed atop bar stools to get away.

    This is why you really shouldn't let Ohio students leave campus.

    It must have been early, beacuse usually the bars are empty in Arizona after the first round [of the NCAAs].

    Thank you.

    I will be here all week with shows at 7 and 10.

    Naw, Stan would knock over all the wine glasses, then go find a chair, preferably with a human in it, curl up and sleep. Pays to still have a tail, I guess :D

    If this story were dated, say, six days from now, I'd have to call a Sidd Finch on it.
