BREVARD COUNTY, Fla.- Two trucks hauling a couch potato's dream of beer and chips collided in an accident that shut down southbound lanes on Interstate 95 for nearly four hours and sent snack food and drinks spilling out on the highway.

The drivers of the semi-tractor trailer and the box truck were not seriously injured. A clean-up crew was called in to help remove the spilled beer and snack chips.

"We had a front-end loader come out and scoop all of the beer and chips and pushed them to the right shoulder. We have two of the three lanes open now," said Kim Montes, spokeswoman for the Florida Highway Patrol. "All of the products will be thrown away. They can't take the risk of them having some type of internal damage. They're still trying to get the chips and beer out of there," she added.

And immediately after a truck containing TV sets and sofas crashed and then a bus containing a bunch of football fans crashed and this was the result.
