A bear’s dream: Pizza, liquor and a convertible

A bear cub drew a crowd of spectators at a Lake Tahoe neighbourhood as it munched on barbecue-chicken-and-jalapeño pizza in the back seat of a vintage red Buick convertible.



It also apparently washed it down with a swig of a Jack Daniel's mixer, an Absolut vodka and tonic, and a beer taken from a cooler.

"People were screaming at him, the horn was going off, but he was completely unaware. He did what he wanted to do, and the people didn't matter."

The bear remained inside the 1964 Buick Skylark for about 20 minutes and at times put his paws on the dash as if he were holding on for a ride.

The owner of the car, David Ziello of South Lake Tahoe, said the bruin didn't cause any damage but slopped cheese and jalapeños on the seats and floor.
