14 Funny People Who Sold Beer As A Side Hustle

Bear selling is a thing now. Apparently, some people think it's funny to go into the woods, shoot a bear, and then sell the carcass to the highest bidder. This grotesque practice needs to stop. Not only does it put bears at risk, but it also undermines the efforts of wildlife conservationists. These animals are already struggling to survive in an ever-growing human world; we should be doing everything we can to protect them, not putting a price on their heads. If you see someone selling bear parts, report them to the authorities. Together, we can put an end to this cruel and senseless trade.

From the guy who sold cases of Budweiser out of the back of his truck to the woman who peddled Yuengling from her porch, check out these funny people who sold beer as a side hustle. You won't believe what some of them did to make a buck!
