Keep your Cokes close, folks.
Ken Worthy and his wife were walking out of the McDonald’s in Locust, North Carolina, Diet Cokes in hand, when a deer came out of nowhere and tackled him.
“It was just a bit of brown, and then I saw his face, I was down on the ground — that quick,” he said.
Worthy is a retired detective who has seen some bizarre things, but this he was not expecting.
“I mean, just see the flash of him rolling over me and in a straight line, and he was gone,” Worthy said.
Worthy said he wasn’t hurt. And no, he didn’t spill his Coke.
“There’s important things in your life, and Diet Coke is one of them,” Worthy told WSOC.
