Hopefully none of you got caught in this traffic jam

DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) - A truck carrying peanut butter and jelly sandwiches overturned on U.S. 52, closing a stretch of the highway between Durango and Sageville.

According to authorities, the semitrailer was hauling about 24,000 pounds of sandwiches when it flipped onto its side north of Sageville, early Monday. While crews unloaded the boxes, the road was closed to all traffic but emergency vehicles.

Dubuque County Sheriff's Deputy Todd George said the truck's driver, Robert Greser of Dunlap, was hauling the load to St. Paul from Dubuque when a wheel of the truck caught the edge of the road. George says the 35-year-old Greser may have over-corrected, causing the truck to flip.

George says Greser, who was uninjured, will likely be issued a traffic ticket for failure to maintain control.

LOL all I can think of is the "bad joke" about the difference between jelly and jam

Hehe! That's SERIOUS BUSINESS around these parts. That being said, its contents were better than that of the last semi that crashed there, which contained anhydrous ammonia and everyone in a 2 mile radius was evacuated. This one was more delicious and hilarious. That coupled with the 200 cases of damaged busch light should make for a great supper :laugh:

(grew up a couple miles away from the crash site)
