Default It Should Be Ilegal For Armadillos To Drink In Public

Went for a ride on the motorcycle today and when I passed this at around 65 mph, I did a WTF and had to turn around to see if I really saw what I thought I saw.

That's too funny. Looks like someone had some time on their hands.

That is actually a pretty common sight in the southern states, especially Texas and other desert areas where the armadillo is common, they have a rather strange reaction to fright, they jump 1-2 feet in the air before rolling up or trying to dig down and hide their heads and underbelly, not a good stratagy when being straddled by a 18 wheeler......
You usually see them along Texas highways with a bottle of Lone Star propped in their stiff little paws, kind of a local running joke. Buddy of mine used to drive in that area, sometimes you see several all lined up with different bottles and cans , have to admit, it is a little funny !!

He did it wrong. You are supposed to hand the beer to your buddy before saying"Hey, watch this!"

If I remember right, "Hey, watch this!", is in the ATVers Dictionary.

If you've ever said, "Hold my beer and watch this!" . . . you might be a redneck.

Was a pancake flat armadillo in the street by the house the other day. Today, there's a fluffier but just as dead one about 3 feet away from the first.

Not sure if he was checking on his friend, or going back after the beer.
