The Fine Dining Options in Smithville Just Got Reduced by 25%

According to the good folks at WJLE Radio in Smithville, TN, one William Gossett of Gordonsville must have had a powerful hankering for an early morning Blizzard.

Trooper Dewaine Jennings of the Tennessee Highway Patrol, who is investigating, said Gossett was traveling east on Highway 70 when "the tractor trailer exited the roadway to the right, struck a sign in front of Larry's Discount Grocery. The sign was then thrown through and busted the front door of the store (Larry's)."

"The tractor trailer continued eastbound traveling through the parking lot of Susie's Restaurant. It also took down their sign." (Susie's Restaurant was also closed at the time).

"The truck then entered the westbound side of Dairy Queen, went completely through the building, and exited through the other side, where it came to a final rest, with most of the vehicle still inside the building."

In Gossett's defense, the sign did say "Drive-Thru."
