FORTUNATELY NOT *GOOD* BEER

Truck overturns on Florida highway, spills 44,000 pounds of beer

(Thanks to MOTW, who says "Emergency pretzel and chip trucks are en route.")

First time I've seen beer measured by weight. Maybe it was light beer?

"44,000 pounds of beer on the road,
44,000 pounds of beer..."

Perhaps it was British beer?

44,000 pounds??

How much is that in asteroids?

How many gallons of pretzels?

Shoddy journalism. That wasn't beer that spilled. Somebody labelled it beer, but it wasn't real beer.

Anyone seen Mulvaney?

This Good Samaritan helped with the cleanup...

Guess he rolled through the weigh station before the wreck. Accuracy counts!

Do discerning drinkers drink Busch? The thief who stole my son's 20-year old car out of our garage in the middle of a January Wisconsin night forfeited a case of Busch Light when the car was recovered (much to my dismay). I rest my case.

44,000 pounds is about 60,000 12-ounce cans of beer, or, according to Dave, enough to last 2 months in warm weather.
