Showerthought: People keep setting up their tents right on top of the fire ring at this one state park
I've seen it three times this month at Lake Guntersville, and it's a great way to wake up smelling like a smoked sausage. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just a weird local trend?

Oh my gosh, that's brilliant! They're just pre-seasoning themselves for the bears. Next level camping, I guess.

That's some serious Darwin award energy right there. Like, they're basically turning themselves into human beef jerky for the wildlife. Can't imagine the thought process beyond "it'll be fine.

Pre-seasoning themselves for the bears" is honestly the best description I've heard. I camped near one of those fire ring tents last summer and watched a raccoon try to drag a half-eaten bag of marshmallows right through their tent zipper at 3 AM. They woke up covered in sticky marshmallow goo and ashes, looking like a sad, burnt s'more. Darwin award material for sure.
