Free Vodka at PETA Meetings

PUNXSUTAWNEY is where they have that giant weather prodicting underground rodent and also where PETA meetings end with copious shots of vodka. After one recent meeting, a member tried to resuscitate a North American marsupial that is famous for playing dead.

From CBS here:

State police have charged a central Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen giving mouth-to-mouth “resuscitation” to a long-dead opossum along a highway.

Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal along Route 36 in Oliver Township Thursday about 3 p.m. The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance, while another saw the mouth-to-mouth attempt.

Levier says Wolfe was “extremely intoxicated” and “did have his mouth in the area of the animal’s mouth, I guess.”
