When a curious raccoon broke into an Ashland, Virginia, liquor store in December 2025, sampled the stock and passed out on the bathroom floor, the story went viral within minutes. The local animal shelter's Facebook post was picked up by national and international outlets and quickly inspired raccoon-themed cocktails, "trashed panda" merchandise and even a cameo on "Saturday Night Live."
