Stupid Tourist Tricks


It's off to a fast start already this year! A list of incidents involving people trying to obtain the coveted Darwin Award. I will keep you up to date of all the stupid tourist tricks.

This yesterday: We thought it was cold! (this is a first)
http://www.ktvq.com/story/31975424/y...ed-it-was-cold



How this lady lived and was not gored is beyond me: Buy a Powerball ticket lady:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfk1O9_quxs

This from last week: Amazing no one got taken out:
http://www.krtv.com/story/31915893/v...nal-park-video

Much of the time, this is what happens: Fat guy vs Bison https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNvTHOrTf_Y

At this rate, it should be a record year for goring incidents, Chinese tourists seem particularly clueless. So far no goring's, but it's coming.

If you have any from your area, post them up.

You can avoid tourists if you walk 100 yards away from the main areas (and, no I don't mean walk off the boardwalks). It seems as if 95% of the people all crowd into the exact same places.

For instance, at Old Faithful there are benches set up near the Lodge where hundreds of people will sit and wait for the next eruption. You will be 20 people deep. If you simply walk on the boardwalk for 10 minutes you will be on the other side of the geyser and all by yourself.

If you want to avoid tourists you can stay in Cook City and/or the eastern entrance.

Yep, which is why I always stay in Cooke, it's only 3 miles from the NE entrance to the park.

Well, we damn near made it a week since the last stupid tourist trick.

They were lucky they got the door closed, or it wasn't a grizzly.

They know how to get into things! Car doors, house doors, campers and tailgates. Lock yo shit up! Maybe even roll up your window so he doesn't reach in and steal your camera!

I'm sure it crossed his mind, but the bear was blocking the door.

Sad thing is, for all the excitement and wonder, most bears who do that have injuries to their front paw[s].

I hate it when that happens!

I have always wanted to get a Bigfoot costume and mess with you bastards on one of our adventures. Jump out from behind a tree, let out a sasquatch howl and run toward you. The only reason I haven't pulled that one is because I know you guys are well armed and I would likely end up getting my ass shot!!
