Nebraska residents find beer fridge washed up in field after flooding subsides
OMAHA, Neb. (FOX NEWS) - Two men in Nebraska stumbled upon a “gift sent from the heavens” amid the tragedy and destruction caused by recent flooding in the Midwest.
Gayland Stouffer and Kyle Simpson were surveying the damage to Simpson’s property near Schuyler on Sunday, when Stouffer spotted a mini-fridge full of beer in the field that had recently been covered in floodwater.
The mini-fridge was stocked with Bud Light and Busch Light, but it was also “ice cold,” seeing as there was still ice in its freezer.
Posting the find to Facebook gave rise to get another “silver lining”: The refrigerator was soon traced back to a home belonging to the father of Brian Healy, cited the fridge’s fire damage – the appliance once survived a house fire too, reportedly – and the ratio of Busch to Bud as evidence that it was the same as the one kept in the men’s cabin upstream.
