Sheriff Gary Miller cruised east from Buffalo to the stretch of Hwy. 55 with large, white ovals painted by the state to slow tailgaters by showing drivers how far apart to stay. About halfway through the stretch he saw the unauthorized addition: a giant rendition of a yellow Pac-Man, the jaws from the 1980s video game trailblazer, attacking an oval dot on the pavement.
I’ve been pac-man with my car before, you know when you drive in the middle of a road and “gobble” up the dotted lines with your car. If I was doing that and all of a sudden ran into the “real” pac-man I think I would loose it. I mean you would have to swerve not to hit him, since this is his forte. You gotta give the man his space. I would just hope he wouldn’t eat a big dot and start chasing me. I wouldn’t blame him if he did. The jokes on him though, I got the cherries.
