Despite the name to my website, I don’t
condone hunting. I’m not going to argue about the moral aspects, but all I’m going to say is that in general, it’s not a sport. At least that’s what I thought until I read about this…
A camping trip to Low Gap Camp Grounds turned into a harrowing experience for Chris Everhart and his three sons when they tangled with a 300-pound black bear.
The bear had taken the Everharts’ cooler and was heading back to the woods when 6-year-old Logan hurled a shovel at it.
Fearing what might happen next, the Norcross father and ex-Marine grabbed the closest thing he could find — a log.
Long story short, Everhart killed the bear with the log. Well, okay, that’s not actually all that long of a story. So it was man versus nature, and man won.
Now that, is a sport. If you can kill a bear with your bare hands - or with natural objects such as logs - I have to credit the physical skill and courage it might take. Hell, I’d watch that on the Deuce if it was on this weekend. I think I’m on to something… someone get ESPN on the horn.
