Seen on the 6PM news that a city in Oregon is draining It's lake because some guy takes a Pee in the lake. Hope they never test Grapevine lake.

It was a treated water lake. Drinking supply. Any lake in Texas that I've fished would fail this test miserably.

Half the beavers in Oregon have peed in the lake, too.

According to an un-named source, the man had been drinking Busch beer. Can't much blame them for draining the lake if that's true.

How big was the lake? That seems at little extreme.

It was a water treatment pond with treated water in it. That being said it is completely irrational to drain it for that reason, but they have to for publicity, especially in portland.
