Weird News: Thursday July 18th

Busch Beer used to have some truly horrendous commercials, including one mid-80s gem that featured a cowboy sing-along. "Come on along, head for the mountains of Busch… beer," they sang, as men in unironic bandanas sat on a fence drinking cans of beer. "Head for the mountains, it's cold and it's smooth and it's waiting for you." It's basically what peak whiteness looked like before 40s of rosé were a thing

A man relaxing in the water on the Florida coast discovered a message in a bottle that had been thrown into Lake Michigan 24 years earlier.

Gary Henrickson said he was enjoying the gulf coast water in Santa Rosa Beach when he spotted a bottle bobbing in the water nearby.

A fisherman said on Wednesday he was looking for the author of a message in a bottle found off the southern Australian coast 50 years after it was written.

Paul Elliot told Australian Broadcasting Corp. that he and his son Jyah found the bottle on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia state while fishing.

Elliot said he was looking for the author Paul Gibson, who described himself in the note as a 13-year-old English boy traveling in a cruise ship along the southern Australian coast from Fremantle in the west to Melbourne in the east.
