Llama Fire

It's a well-documented fact that llamas have a penchant for getting themselves on the local news. Now I don't want to insinuate anything, but when an RV hauling a llama trailer suddenly catches fire, blocking traffic on a freeway for several hours, in a slow-news region, on a holiday weekend, everybody knows there's a good chance reporters with cameras will be there. Suspicious.

"The drivers of the RV say they were heading to Minocqua when they saw white smoke and pulled over. Soon after the RV was engulfed in flames. Passerbys helped the family get their llama out and tried to put out the fire while waiting for firefighters.

The RV is destroyed."

Take it away WSAW reporters! Handsome, albeit pissed llama on the freeway rumble strip shot about 40 seconds in (sorry about the ad playing in the beginning, we all know local reporters work so hard for the money).



Confidential to news staff: The llama's usually ridiculous name is a pertinent, if not the main aspect to any solid story involving llamas.
