Steer goes viral after walking through Tim Hortons drive thru in central Alberta

This video may be the most memorable moment ever at a drive-thru in Alberta!

Meet Magnum, the sweet-toothed steer who pulled into one Tim Hortons drive-thru Saturday morning in Sylvan Lake in central Alberta to pick up his favourite Timbits.

Kelly Landry is originally from Quebec. She moved to Alberta last April and tells CityNews she’s been riding the eight-year-old steer since he was 10-months-old.

“I just strap and go. When I know there’s something that could be dangerous I just talk and prepare myself and try to just distract him,” she explained.

Landry says she used to take Magnum on adventures to local businesses and drive-thru’s when she lived in Quebec, and she’ll continue to do the same now in Alberta.

“I just rode him two times in town. He’s been here since the end of October. I can take him to the grocery. I’ll try to go to the beach.”

And whether Magnum is a local celebrity, she says, “I think he will.”

The video of Magnum at Tim Hortons is going viral on social media. Landry says the reactions she received online and from locals were priceless.

“Many were surprised and took pictures of him. Sometimes I let people go on him, more kids.”
