tumblr_inline_miw5kikz0d1qz4rgp.jpg Chicken Causes Power Outage At Kahului Airport
A chicken got into a Maui Electric Co. transformer in the rental car area at Kahului Airport on Tuesday afternoon, causing a power outage at the airport that left some passengers having to disembark their planes the old way — by mobile stairway.
The outage began at 2:07 p.m. when a chicken got into transformer in the rental car area and caused a short in the equipment, said MECO spokeswoman Kaui Awai-Dickson on Tuesday afternoon.

Customers affected were the airport and nearby businesses, including the rental car companies, Courtyard Maui Kahului Airport hotel and Kmart. Costco was not affected, according to MECO.

As of 2:34 p.m., all customers were restored with power with the exception of the rental car companies located just outside the airport. All power was restored at 3:25 p.m., Maui Electric reported.

We hear how customers were affected, but now how the chicken was affected; I guess imagination (and perhaps olfactory senses) will have to suffice.

Also, we have a spokesperson from MECO? Haven't heard much from them since they did that Star Wars disco treatment...

Camel Spotter: Now look, if anybody else pinches my phrase I'll throw them under a camel.

Interviewer: giggling) If you can spot one.

(Spotter gives him a dirty look. Knight in armor appears beside him. He hits interviewer with chicken.)

Was that a chicken joke?
