Well, we’ve officially run out stories with less than six hours to go before the NFC title game. But we’ll post this one anyway.

The Associated Press passes along the vital information that a Minnesota bar owned by a Packers fan has decided to cook a 180-pound black bear in a pig roaster to show his support for Green Bay on Sunday.

Unfortunately, the state health department rejected the owner’s plan to serve the bear meat to his customers. Instead, they can take pictures with the roasting bear.

And then the dude is taking the meat to his cousin’s party so they can dig in. Yum.
