Monroe man tries to shoot squirrel, hits himself instead
A Monroe man trying to shoot a squirrel wound up shooting himself.Now, I may be way out on a limb here, but I'm going to guess that alcohol was involved... That guy is nuts! He's out of his tree! Okay, okay, enough with the squirrel puns, I know...
Ethan Bennett, 36, told Benton County sheriff’s deputies he was at his residence at 24750 Cox Lane in Monroe about 4:15 p.m. Wednesday when he tried to shoot the rodent with a .22-caliber rifle.
The squirrel reportedly ran up his left leg, and he pulled the trigger, hitting himself in the foot.
If you've ever shot yourself while taking shots at a squirrel in your pants, you might be a redneck.
That is all.

SQUIRREL!
"If you've ever shot yourself while taking shots at a squirrel in your pants, you might be a redneck."
I have to disagree. I'm a redneck, I grew up among rednecks, and I don't think this would happen.
Now having a hound dog or a pit bull go in after it, that would be redneck style.
I grew up around alcoholics , this could definitely happen.
(they were alcoholic rednecks but we will ignore that detail for the moment)
"He's out of his tree!"
No! the squirrel was running up his leg - he WAS the tree.
"you might be a redneck."
RACIST!!

Before I clicked the link, I thought it was near Ambulance Driver. I was thinking that no self-respecting LA redneck would be that dumb. Kind of an insult to rednecks, then again, it was in OREGON...home to transplant Californians.
This is so awesome that it hurts.
I was having visions of the Mississippi Squirrel Revival running through my head...

The only squirrel I ever shot at that close a range was in the upstairs hallway, with a pellet pistol.
