You Betcha has dropped a new video, and this one is about how tough it is to start a bonfire.
As everyone knows, I’m a huge fan of the popular entertainment company. They drop hilarious videos all the time, and this one is pretty damn good. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
It perfectly captures how tough it can be to start a bonfire. Give it a watch below. You’re going to love it.
Seeing as how it’s currently bonfire season where I live, I know how frustrating this can be. Nothing is worse than when a fire won’t catch.
It kills the mood and vibe, and it’s just incredibly irritating. A fire not starting can take a great night and turn it on its head real fast.

Personally, I’m a tipi kind of guy. I build the tipi out of thinly sliced pieces of wood, load the base with newspaper and cardboard and then put a thicker piece in the middle.
It tends to work incredibly well.

Fun story for you all. My mother was having a bonfire with some of her friends when I was a kid. They were all enjoying some wine but just couldn’t get the fire crackling.
Like the moronic young kid that I was, I just sprayed some gasoline on it, lit a match and threw it in from a distance of about 18 inches.
I lost all the hair on my hand in about a second flat.

So, enjoy the fun summer months, but don’t start dousing your fires with gasoline. That’s a recipe for absolute disaster.
Now, let’s get back to cracking them open?
It’s Friday night in America. We have @BuschBeer chilling on ice in my @OrcaCoolers, college football is going to happen, I have my @Yellowstone hat on, sitting in my @BadgerFootball chairs and we’re going to win the war against coronavirus.
