Blake Shelton turned his back on some food he cooked in the smoker on his back deck, and when he returned an opossum was having a feast. Can't blame the poor critter. Heck, I've had friends who'd steal my barbecue if I left it unattended.
Blake posted two clips of the encounter. The first is the food thievery and in the second he's petting the opossum, which is perched on a railing.
He wrote, "At least I made a new buddy. Also, I don't recommend petting wild animals. It just so happens that I have the vodka reflexes of a rattlesnake.
