An 18-wheeler truck overturned in Maryland yesterday and in the
process committed what is possibly the world's largest-ever party foul.
According to
The Huffington Post, a truck overturned on interstate 270
and spilled hundreds of cases of beer, 77,000 pounds of Budweiser to be exact.
Maryland state police explained the cause of the accident, saying that the truck
overturned while, "trying to avoid debris on the highway when it rolled over
near the Frederick-Montgomery County line around 4 a.m. Thursday."
The scene was chaotic, with hundreds of bright red Budweiser beer cases
strewn across the highway and the shoulder. Unfortunately for commuters, the
highway was closed during the morning rush while the beer spill was being
cleaned, which was explained as an "extensive" process.
There's no word yet on what happened to the hundreds of cases that poured out
of the 18-wheeler. Perhaps the cleaning crew got to head home with some
souvenirs.
Though, it's probably not a good idea to celebrate my promotion by coming to work sloshed.
