Imagine the chaos at that fire.

Chickens trying to get out of the building and people eating them as they tried :(

The worst is when it's a story about someone who's died and then the ad says "15% off Reaper Grim's Funeral Services- Beat the spring rush!"

One fire, many birds.

Problem how?

Fire kills thousands of Chickens... Entertain your family at home, for less!

Worse, they seem to have video of the wildfire in which the chickens were all killed.

That's similar to when I worked for an alternative newspaper (think Village Voice). Google ads placed our "adult/escort" ad links on the job posting for our human resources director. Guess that will give you an idea of the work environment.

@greyer: Actually, I think it's a different fire. I've used the CMS that the site employs, and there's a way to link a video and a story together so the story headline has the video icon next to it. Because they're two different headlines, I'm guessing that there were two different fires.

Hm... annoyed KFC Free Grilled Chicken coupon holder who didn't feel like taking a raincheck, and instead decided to make his own?

@Woden501: That depends. Were the eleven herbs and spices in the barn when it was lit on fire?

@Joshua Fitzgerald: Om nom nom.

@sanjsrik: Flaming birds fly away, set thousands of other fires, catching more animals on fire, which run/fly away, setting millions of fires - basically, we're talking about the apocalypse here.

One of my old favorites:

Hey KFC has to make up for all those coupons, right?

@Travishamockery: Except chickens don't really fly.

@utensil42: Apparently you've never seen a rocket-boosted burning chicken fleeing the flames.

We had an old 1800's vintage mill building filled with chickens catch fire near here about 35 years ago (in Manchaug/Sutton, Massachusetts). Everyone gathered to watch the firemen try to put out the fire, and another group of firemen were occupied fulltime by dousing the fires set in the nearby woods by flying {well, more plumetting, actually}, burning chickens who were escaping from the building once the windows had exploded or burned through.

The stench afterwards was horrible, you could smell it for about a five mile radius. No KFC jokes there for sure.

@scoosdad: and there it is:

No mention of the famous chicken fire in the written history of the mill, though. Too bad. The tradename "Fruit of the Loom" was coined there, apparently.
