People sometimes pass out in bars, but are rarely taken to a hospital for doing so.

That happened twice Saturday evening in the Flathead.

A bartender fainted at the VFW Lounge in Whitefish, and the Whitefish Fire Department took him to North Valley Hospital.

Seventy-seven minutes later, a 45-year-old man fainted at the Finish Line after having one beer, and the Kalispell Fire Department took him to Kalispell Regional Medical Center.
