#1 Armadillos Marching North to Illinois

We are marching to Peoria!
Peoria!

We are marching to Peoria!
Peoria, hurrah!

Man, I've been waiting forever to use that joke.

Remember that when hunting an armadillo, it can be dangerous to use anything less than HVAP ammo.

#4 Back in the early '80's, the Texas Lone Star Beer Company had a hilarious series of TV advertisements featuring a giant armadillo with a penchant for Lone Star Beer.

In one such advert, they showed a Lone Star semi-truck that looked like it had been torn apart by Godzilla, with a shaken truck driver being interviewed by a highway patrolman.

Another was a Casablanca parody, at an airport, where the pilot of a crop duster was preparing to fly an emergency shipment of Lone Star beer, telling his girlfriend that, "This beer just has to get through. Or I won't get paid!"
