Welcome to NWArkansas, where even gut truck spills is funny.
Highway department spokesman Randy Ort said volunteer firefighters showed up to the I-30 spill and started spraying all the chicken parts off the interstate with a high-pressure hose, sending chicken eyeballs rolling all over.
“It was the truck driver who made the spill who had to stop them and say, ‘ No, you can’t do that, ’” Ort said.
THAT'S a mental image that'll have me giggling all day....as well as this one:
Ort from the Highway Department said liability concerns from someone later getting sick because a road was cleaned improperly are remote.
“If someone fell off the back of a truck and licked the highway and got sick — sure, something like that could happen, I guess, but let’s just say we haven’t had that come up just yet.”

Pausing for a reload during a ferocious airsoft gun battle against numerous imaginary enemies, "Ma, you smell that?"
"What?"
"Do you smell that?"
"I dunno, what does it smell like?"
"It smells like....VICTORY!"
