A California man protected his home from a wild fire with beer. You read that right.

"It was crazy," homeowner Chad Little told KCRA when describing the fire. "Everybody's on propane tanks. It was like a war zone."

After his family packed up and headed for safety, he decided to stay and protect his home. According to the article, Little had already lost his home to a fire about 5 years ago, and was still in the process of rebuilding.

"I was putting out fires all the way around here, stopping it from going toward the house. Meanwhile, all the cars were on fire.. it was burning on the wood down low, and I didn't have any water," Little said.

Little then grabbed the only liquid he had left โ€” cans of Bud Light. "My buddies all tease me about drinking water beer, and I say, 'Hey, saved my shop.'"

This is great PR for Bud Light, and they are already having a much better year publicity-wise than Corona. However, if I were Corona I might pull the ol' PR switcheroo and let everyone know that Bud Light stops fires because it actually is 100% water. ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿป๐Ÿป
