I’ve got a bad feeling that there’s about to be a Busch Heavy shortage along the Florida beaches for Spring Break after a semi crash early this morning that resulted in Busch being dumped on the side of the road by the careless truck driver. The fuzz says it’s 60,000 pounds of beer.
Quick math (assuming 12 oz. cans, no tall boys) we’re looking at 60,000 / 12 oz. = 5000 cans = 417 12-packs.
From WEAR:
A South Carolina truck driver caused quite a scene on I-10 Wednesday morning after spilling nearly 60,000 pounds of beer onto the highway in Okaloosa County.
According to a Florida Highway Patrol press release, Michael Nolan Powell, 44, of Simpsonville, South Carolina, was driving a tractor-trailer west on I-10 at 2:40 a.m. when he failed to maintain his lane.
As a result, the tractor-trailer traveled onto the north shoulder of the road and overturned on its passenger side, causing an estimated 60,000 pounds of Busch beer to be thrown from the trailer, the press release stated.
