A Chicken in Every Pothole

-By Warner Todd Huston

Kentucky Fried Chicken has been making a tour of America’s big cities trying to get those towns to allow them, KFC, to fill the many thousands of potholes pockmarking our roads left over from this past harsh winter.

But it isn’t just community spirit motivating the fast food, fried chicken giant. They want to spray paint KFC logos on top of every pothole they pay to fill. It’s all a matter of advertising.

But I say, so what? Let them get their advertising. If they want to kick their ad money into a mutually beneficial arrangement with the cities, so what?

Personally, I’d rather see a chicken in every pothole than to see my axle snapped in two every time I head down a city street.

That and I was itching to say “a chicken in every pothole.” It is a play on words that I just couldn’t resist.
