When a large bear came strolling toward a crowd of people having a party at California’s Lake Tahoe, a lodge staff member with a bear horn came to the rescue. Victor Parra, Division 1 professional soccer player, was amongst the crowd enjoying a good time at a Tahoe restaurant when the bear wanted to join the fun. Parra took a video, and it has nearly a half-million views so far.

“A very big bear showed up to the party Saturday night at the Sunnyside Restaurant and Lodge in Tahoe City, California,” wrote ABC 7 in an Instagram post sharing Parra’s video. “Making its arrival at 8:35 PM and soon making its way back into the woods after a stroll along the Lake Tahoe shore. Eye-opening to the large crowd but no people or bears were hurt.”
