Yep! I was standing out by the road at 6 am today with my lunchbox in hand waiting for my ride to go to work when I heard something snorting and breathing heavy behind me. I turned around to find myself only 5 ft away from a big Black Bear. I had to act quickly........thought to myself that maybe I should make a run for it, then decided that he could probably run faster mad than I could scared $h-tless. So I threw my arms in the air to make myself look bigger.(I'm 6'3" to start with)
He stopped walking, just looked at me, then slowly turned around and walked 10 ft away, stopped again, then started running towards me. I threw my arems in the air again and yelled then it ran away back towards to bush a block away. The guys I travel with showed up only minutes later.
Kind of scary with an animal that big out of its elements charging at you right in the middle of town.
