Black bear wanders into pub in Estes Park

A bear walks into a bar... no really. An Irish pub not far from Rocky Mountain National Park got an unusually burly visitor last week. A black bear briefly wandered into Lonigan's pub in downtown Estes Park. Daniel Lyell, of Estes Park, says he followed the bear inside and took a photo of it while trying to warn customers up front that a bear was walking toward them. He says customers didn't seem to notice. The bear left a short time later. The bar's owner and bartender didn't see the bear either, but a surveillance camera shows it ambling past empty tables and chairs. Bar owner David Callahan says this is the second time he knows of that a bear has entered the saloon.
