Kiwis might be getting through lockdown with a positive attitude, but one elderly woman in the US could no longer beer it.
A 93-year-old woman from Pennsylvania has gone viral after making a hilarious pea from the window of her home.
It wasn't a plea for more company or forlockdown to be over - instead it was a plea for more beer.
Olive Veronesi was photographed at her window holding a can of Coors Light with a whiteboard that read: "I need more beer!!"
TOO FUNNY: ♥️🍺 93-year old Olive Veronesi from Seminole, PA is doing her part to stay home and stay safe, and she’s sending this message to her neighbors and to her daughter. More: kdka.com/coronavirus.
The photo of Veronesi went viral, with more than 4 million people viewing the 93-year-old's antics.
"Love you to bits all the way from England," one wrote.
Another joked: "Oh okay a 93-year-old does it and it's funny and heartwarming but when I do it I'm an alcoholic."
While several people offered to help drop off beer to the 93-year-old, Coors Light came through and delivered 150 cans of Pilsner to her door - enough to last her five months in quarantine.
