Volunteers with a nonprofit dog rescue said their beer stand was looted at a local festival and it was caught on camera.
Video posted on Facebook shows one festivalgoer saying “thank you” as someone hands him a beer, but an attendant at the stand said the people in that clip did not pay.
“It was unbelievable. There were just people just handing them out,” said Jerry English, a volunteer who was working the beer stand. “Then you have one guy that runs to the guy, grabs a beer, and then he gets offered another one, and he says, ‘no, I’m not greedy.’ I mean, you’re stealing — what’s going on?”
English was volunteering with DMK Rehoming, a nonprofit that works to rescue dogs on the verge being euthanized. One of their primary ways to raise money is by selling beer at local events. This past weekend his group volunteered to operate the beer concessions at the Global Dance Festival that was taking place at Mile High Stadium.
“We do all of the events over at Mile High and at Fiddler’s, but this tends to be one of the bigger ones for us. So, we were really hoping to have a good weekend,” said Karen Beeman, the volunteer coordinator with DMK Rehoming.
