Cocaine Bear Gets Official Pac-Man-Like Game Where You Hoard Coke And Eat People
The true 1985 story of a 175-pound American black bear overdosing on $2 million worth of coke is getting its own film this month, and to commemorate, the aptly titled Cocaine Bear has launched a web game styled on Pac-Man where you gather up drugs and eat random people. Don't try this at home.

And, as with most web games, it's completely free - all you gotta do is open the link and get stuck in. You won't get free tickets for earning a good score, but you can brag to all your friends who will definitely be
