Drunk Raccoon Viral Post: Picture this: Saturday morning in a Virginia liquor store. Workers unlock the door, flip on the lights, and total disaster. Broken bottles everywhere, whiskey puddles on the floor, shelves knocked over like a tornado hit. Everyone’s thinking, 'We got robbed!' But then they hear a little snore coming from the bathroom. They open the door and there he is: one very wasted raccoon, passed out cold on the tiles, looking like he just survived the party of the century.
Turns out the little bandit fell through the ceiling during the night, landed right on the bottom shelf of scotch and whiskey, and decided it was happy hour... for one. He smashed bottles, chugged whatever he could reach, trashed the whole place, then stumbled into the bathroom for a nap.

Animal control showed up and Officer Samantha Martin couldn’t stop laughing. She told the Associated Press, "I personally like raccoons. They are funny little critters. He fell through one of the ceiling tiles and went on a full-blown rampage, drinking everything."
They carried the sleepy party animal out, let him sleep it off at the shelter, and by afternoon he was totally fine. The shelter posted an update saying, "After a few hours of sleep and zero signs of injury (other than maybe a hangover and poor life choices), he was safely released back to the wild, hopefully having learnt that breaking is not the answer."

The post shared on X by 'Pop Crave' blew up online in minutes. People lost it, "Dude had the best Friday night ever," "Give that raccoon a medal," "Fake news? No way this is real!" But it’s 100% true. One user wrote, "Taking photos of the raccoon in its private moment is simply disrespectful. I stand with the raccoon if it ever presses charges." "Living proof that bad decisions cross species," a second user wrote.
Moral of the story? Never underestimate a raccoon with a dream and an open ceiling tile. The internet has a new king, and he’s furry, hungover, and living his best life back in the woods right now.
