What if 30,000 pounds of bananas met 40,000 pounds of frozen fish?

Good Morning Gloucester posts photos of the overturned semi with the 40,000 pounds of frozen fish in it.

Too bad Harry Chapin . .
isn't alive to write a song about it.
Unlike the Scranton PA crash that inspired
"Bananas', there were no fatalities, no major injuries, not even a lot of damage here. Although this accident inconvenienced many people, it was just a truck tipping over. Hardly fodder for a folk song.
And, with respect to the memory of Mr. Chapin (a talented artist whose music I still enjoy to this day), I still find it ironic that the man who wrote and performed "30,000 Pounds Of Bananas" ended up being killed in a crash with a tractor-trailer on the Long Island Expressway.
