Braves foam tomahawks spill from truck, cause freeway traffic jam

The Atlanta Braves have not done much right in the early part of the MLB season, and the terrible start has apparently rubbed off on the people responsible for transporting their souvenirs.

According to Ellen Eldridge of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a bunch of Braves foam tomahawks fell from a truck on I-75 Wednesday morning and caused a traffic jam on the freeway. Georgia Department of Transportation officials said enough boxes fell from the truck where the two left lanes were blocked, causing a delay.

The Braves, who are off to a 1-6 start, can only hope the souvenir incident isn’t an omen.
