You know what’s better than a ton of slime eels spilling onto a highway? A bunch of pizzas spilling onto a highway, and that’s exactly what happened recently on Arkansas Highway I-30.
It all kicked off when the top of a truck’s trailer hit the bottom of an overpass, and that caused the trailer to release a bunch of Digiorno and Tombstone frozen pizzas all over the road. Why did this trailer have a bunch of frozen pizzas? No clue, but chances are it was being deliver to a nearby dorm room.

The crashed actually caused the highway to be shutdown for four hours in both directions. Four hours, folks!

The crash occurred in front of the Arkansas Department of Transportation office. Oh, and Danny Straessle, a spokesman for the agency, said that all damage to the overpass was merely cosmetic.
Boss at work today: “There’s a truck accident on I-30 at baseline and I need you to go check it out. There’s free pizza”

And if you were wondering if this pizza was still good enough to eat prepare to be disappointed.
For those asking. The pizzas have been run over and many have diesel fluid on them, so there won’t be pizza for dinner for any of us.

But this dude gets it.
It’s wrapped up so the pizza is protected
