Kyle F. Campbell of Fairmont, Indiana was sentenced to 60 days in prison, a five year probation, and a five year ban from Yellowstone National Park after a drunken rage against a park guide and park officials.

Campbell and his friends had scheduled a guided kayaking trip, but the guide refused to take the group because they were noticeably drunk. Campbell made threats at the guide and the group drove away.

Park rangers were called shortly after it was reported that Campbell was speeding through the park. When confronted by rangers, Campbell made threats, disobeyed orders, and struggled and kicked at officers.

Officers stated in court documents that Campbell: “read our name tags repeatedly, state that he would remember our names, find us, blow us away on the side of the road, and kill us.”

Huh, I remember my first beer. What an asshole. Shout out to the park rangers that had to deal with this idiot.

Yellowstone needs to start handing out bans like candy on Halloween with all of the riff raff that comes through that park.

Slap a bison on its ass? BAN. 

Entice a bear with a pic-a-nic basket like Yogi Bear for a sweet Instagram pic? BAN.

Go streaking across Old Faithful because it will be so “legendary”. 

BAN. BAN. BAN.
