If you're heading into Boston on the Massachusetts Turnpike this morning, expect major delays. Three tractor-trailers and a car crashed at the Weston tolls on the eastbound side of the highway around 2:30 a.m.
State police say a truck carrying slabs of beef struck a toll booth and was rear-ended by another truck. Both fell on their side. A third truck and a car were also involved.
Every tailgater from Plymouth to Orange was headed into Weston this morning, with their Weber grills warming up on the back gate of the Expedition in anticipation of the state's largest tailgating party...
MA Pike: It's THE place to meat people!
Mass Drivers: Not only do we not believe in turn signals, we don't even yield for roadside beef!
MA: Why, yes, we may very well steer you wrong.
MA: We believe in using our horn to let you know something that formerly had horns is on the road in front of you.
MA Traffic: Congested with a chance of meatballs.
(Can y'all tell I'm having fun with this one?)
That is all.

Indeed.
Makes me wonder what you'd have made of an incident in Cincinnati a few years ago. A tanker-truck headed in along I-74 took a curve too fast and spilled its load ...
... of 40,000 pounds of liquified animal fat.
I expected you to finish up with:
"Thank you, I'm here all week. Don't forget to tip your waitress, and try the steak, it's the best on the turnpike."
Driving through the boonies of Maine one foggy night, I saw the aftermath of a butcher's truck that turned over- at first, as I creeped by in the rubberneck line, it looked like a slaughterhouse floor. I had an 'o face' for about 5 seconds, until I realized it was beef.
Thought at first it was a bunch of bull. Until I "herd" it from you.Don't be cowed by these awful puns. The steaks are too high.
after hearing about massachusetts rest areas reputations , I'm not sure if "Lets meat on the highway" is a good title : ) iykwimaityd
