Rangers and paramedics responded and “detected evidence of alcohol use,” the release said.

They found the man’s shoe, hat and a beer can near the geyser.

If only there was some way to determine what happened here. </sarc>

Oh. Because of his age I don’t think he is eligible for a Darwin Award. At this age he had has no doubt spread his pollen among many flowers.

I wonder if he was originally from Florida?

The boardwalks are there for a reason, Einstein.

tripped into a hot spring while on an off-boardwalk stroll without a flashlight just before midnight.

Who could have guessed that outcome? The beer can is just the cherry on top.

I had a scalding accident once (not my fault) and it was bad enough on a relatively small area, so I feel sorry for the guy. I would feel a lot sorrier if he hadn’t been so incredibly stupid. He’s old enough that he should have gotten by now over the idea that he’s invincible. Everyone knows the water is hot and the crust is thin. He goes out anyway, at night and drunk. What could happen? I guess he got wise real fast. Maybe the Park Service should post photos of him and this incident along the geyser trails.

Rangers are still assessing any damage to the geyser cone,

I would worry about this. Drunk stupid tourists can be easily replaced. Old Faithful can't.

we need to do something,,
ban alcohol sales for 100 mile around Yellowstone to ensure this cant happen again ..

There are sooo many warnings there to stay on the boardwalks. All you have to do is look at the stuff literally bubbling up from the Earth to know that’s really good advice.
