Shooters' Shooter Shoots Shot To Become Shooters Mascot By Shooting Several Shots
SHOOTERS - THE OFFICIAL BAR OF THE BILLINGS POLICE DEPARTMENT SINCE 1970
On Saturday, Shooters Casino and Sports Bar held its first ever shooting competition, the winner to become the bar’s official mascot.
Before the competition, Billings Police Chief Rich St. John commented, “The Billings Police Department has been an ardent supporter of the bar since the beginning, for obvious reasons. I would be surprised if there was anyone that could replace us here.”
The competition itself drew several participants, but only one made it to the final round. Owner Michael Morgan told the Beet about the atypical bar game: “We called it Shots on Shots on Shots. Stage one was taking several shots of the bartender’s choice. Stage two was firing several shots inside the building. And Stage three was being judged by a panel of sharp shooters from the BPD.”
Though the bar was crowded with attendees, only one participant made it through the last two phases. According to judges, the BPD was the clear winner still, but a later social media post thanked the second place winner for shooting her shot at taking on the BPD for Best Shooter in Shooters.

Yes, this is satire.
