What started as a holiday hunting trip between two friends and a dog, has had a dark and tragic outcome.
Early Saturday morning, just one day after celebrating Christmas with his family, country singer Craig Strickland, 29, of the Arkansas band Backroad Anthem, and friend Chase Morland, 22, embarked on a hunting trip with Strickland's dog, Sam.
Both were experienced hunters, as seen from previous social media posts.
The tweet was meant to be humorous.
Morland even included the "laugh-cry" emoji.
The most troubling part of this hunting trip gone wrong is the presence of winter storm Goliath.
The storm is hitting the Midwest region especially hard, according to The Weather Channel.
It appears the boat capsized due to the flooding of Kaw Lake, where the two were duck hunting.
