Surfers in the drink after beer truck flips

Wed May 11,12:49 PM ET
SAN ONOFRE (Reuters) - A truck hauling 2,000 cases of beer flipped over and unleashed a sea of suds onto San Onofre's dirt road on Wednesday, in a scene that could have been lifted from the San Onofre cliche handbook. The early morning accident brought the usual morning speeders to a standstill on the dirt road near the point, as rescuers worked to free a woman on a cell phone trapped in the giant SUV that collided with the tractor trailer. "Believe it or not with this crushed SUV, the young lady driving it is going to be okay," Ranger Hal Dairywimple told ABC news. "The sand on the beach is now absorbing the beer," he added. At San Onofre, beer is closely co-advertised with the national obsession of shoulder hopping and an enduring national stereotype of drunk surfer's who swilled beer and ended every sentence with "dude?." Rangers said the beer-soaked sand would be scooped into bins and returned to the supplier for destruction against the loud objections by the denizens of bathroom #4-20.
