Every claw machine has that one prize that's really intriguing, but almost impossible to extract. One machine at Meadows Family Fun Mini Golf in Duncansville, Pennsylvania, had a groundhog inside. Not a plush groundhog, but an adorable young groundhog that wandered about among the pile of plushie toys up for grabs. The critter somehow made his way inside, probably through the retrieval bin, but couldn't figure out how to get out.
Employees of the business called the game warden's office, and State Game Warden Salvadore Zaffuto responded, but he couldn't get the critter out, either. They had to call in the vending machine company, who sent someone to unlock the machine and let the groundhog out. Meanwhile, they had time to take plenty of pictures, some of which which you can see at the state game commission's Facebook post. The groundhog was unharmed. It was released on its own recognizance. -via Boing Boing

More fun than seeing a toddler trapped inside a claw machine.
