It sounds like a great plot for a beer commercial, if only it weren't illegal: A daring team of robbers hijacked two tractor-trailers and made off with 2,600 cases of beer.

They even managed to unload their stash from a truck that had a tracking device on board.

We advise the robbers not to try and drink it all themselves. You'd be hard-pressed not to develop a serious beer gut from funneling the 31,200 bottles included in those cases. There's no better time to make a few thousand friends (and also buy off many potential jurors).

We suggest our event ideas after the jump:

We propose combining massive quantities of alcohol with one of man's other great loves, sports:

1. A huge beer-an-inning softball tournament. For those who haven't played, keep in mind that it's increasingly difficult to throw and catch in the field by the ninth inning. Even 20-run deficits can be erased when your shortstop can only stumble listlessly after a grounder.

2. Swimming competition in a beer-filled, man-made lake. Try doing laps in lager for a while and see what you're made of. Alternately (see photo) there's the ever-wonderful beer-in-a-hot-tub.

3. Beer-a-minute hunting and archery. Not for the faint of heart.

Of course, if the authorities in Georgia want to catch these thieves, they might try looking for the biggest New Year's Eve party they can find.
