Yeah, but did they run out of beer?
Fortunately Minnesotans are legally required to take several dozen cases of Schell’s along with ‘em out on the ice for just such an emergency, don’tcha know.
If you have enough alcohol in your blood it can’t freeze. You could die, but you’d be a slushie.
In a pinch, beer cans can be stuffed under clothing until floatation occurs
We were thinking of risking it last weekend going up to Red. Guess we made the safe call, but thats the type of story these fisherman live to tell.
Yeah you did. This stuff has scared the crap out of me since 1998 when we got stuck on Leech Lake during Blizzard and had our ice house blow over, then pushed countless feet before running off the lake on foot to a rental property. Ice fishing can be dangerous.
