Beer Spill in Chicago this a.m. Coolers needed.
Edited on Tue Jun-16-09 10:01 AM by monmouth
If you took the Eisenhower Expressway or the Tri-State into the city this morning, you should have brought a cooler and some ice.

Way more than 99 bottles of beer happened to fall when a big rig loaded up with Miller Lite overturned in the western suburbs Tuesday morning.

The truck rolled over on the ramp from the southbound Tri-State Tollway to the inbound Ike, spilling a huge load of beer cans all over the median in what could be the biggest tragedy of the morning. The driver wasn't hurt.

There was a big gaper's delay as grown men driving by wiped back tears or tried to figure out if they could snag a can without anyone noticing.

1. I thought you said "beer". Miller Lite is not "beer".

3. With Chicago, I was hoping Goose Island.
I agree with the first response - Miller Lite is not beer. No tears shed here.

Avalanche for me. I do not mind scratched or dented cans either.
