This sh*t is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. No, seriously, I’m talking actual bananas. Because that’s what caused this major traffic accident on I-95 over the weekend.
I’m dead serious.
So, here’s how it went down. A tractor trailer carrying 40,000 pounds of bananas rolled over by exit 62. It’s the Madison/Clinton border, if you wanted to know.
Basically, it shut down northbound traffic for cleanup. Which, obviously, created an army of rubber-neckers. I mean, how could you not help but look? Bananas… everywhere.

The strangest thing is that no one knows how the accident actually happened. Or what caused it. How can a truck flip and roll over like that?
Well, good thing I’m here. Because I know exactly how it went down.
Okay, that’s my attempt at a joke. A really REALLY terrible joke that makes no sense if you never played Mario Kart. At least I didn’t make a Minions reference.
Anyways, that joke hurt more than the injuries sustained by the driver. He thankfully walked away pretty much without a scratch.
That said, be careful when transporting bananas on state highways. You might become the victim of my terrible references.
