Black Bear Joins Golfers On Course For A Game Of 'Eat The Ball'

Golfers at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler were in for quite the surprise that day when they saw a black bear on the green. Apparently, that guy decided it was going to play a little golf with these people! How cool is that?

Evan Byrne, his brother Matt and their dad were hoping for a nice, quiet game of golf, but that bear had another plan. He just walked up to the ball in the middle of the field and laid down next to it.

“Oh. My. God. He’s hugging Matt’s golf ball!” Evan laughs behind camera, while his buddy is trying to coin a plan to get his gear back from the uninvited guest. The bear just lies there, looking around and probably wondering what is everyone staring at.

Matt’s dad tries to scare the bear away by clapping his hands and talking calmly, but the animal just stares back at him. The old man tries to get the bear to get up and release its hostage, but both sons persuade him otherwise.

“Give me the ball” the dad keeps repeating to the bear, as if it were one of his sons at their most stubborn, but the animal won’t budge. But dad’s insisting must have been tiresome to the poor guy, so he just gets up and slowly leaves the scene and the three men with their boring sport.
