Truck Carrying Lucky Charms Overturns On Highway
<snip>

LAKE COUNTY, Ohio -- It wasn't a lucky morning for one truck driver Wednesday.

Traffic5000's Linda Dawson reported that A tractor-trailer overturned on Interstate 90 westbound at state Route 306 in Lake County.

The driver suffered a seizure and overturned his truck carrying 26,000 pounds of Lucky Charms cereal. The driver is said to be OK.


The truck has been uprighted, but the mess is still on the roadway.

1. Darn, I wanted to see pink hearts, orange stars, green clovers,
yellow moons, blue diamonds, and purple horseshoes all over the road!

2. The luck ran out.
An obvious case of diminishing return in the luck caused by edible charms.

However, a breif google search reveals that this is the first time a Lucky Charms truck has ever had such an accident, so..maybe if the truck driver hadn't taken down the St Christafer medal from the dash things would have turned out differently.

3. Was that on the "Magically Delicious" southbound?? or north?
:)

We once had a spectacular crash on the 405 , I think.. a beer truck and a semi hauling ice....

The helicopter guys were having a ball with that one.. "Happy hour"
