    Mean Joe has passed on.

    The absolute best commercial ever made was the Coke commercial when he throws the little kid his jersey.

    Details on the hits by UPS crash..

    AI Overview


    A recent UPS cargo plane crash in
    Louisville, Kentucky, involved the aircraft crashing into an industrial area affecting several businesses, specifically Kentucky Petroleum Recycling, an auto salvage yard known as Grade A Auto Parts, and a nearby truck repair shop.
    The incident occurred on November 4, 2025, shortly after the MD-11 aircraft took off from Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport.
    Details of the businesses involved:
    • Kentucky Petroleum Recycling: The plane reportedly hit this facility "pretty directly," which stored tanks of oil and propane, triggering secondary explosions and a massive fire.
    • Grade A Auto Parts: This auto salvage yard was heavily damaged by the impact and debris field of the crash.
    • Kentucky Truck Parts & Service: A nearby truck repair shop was also in the vicinity. Security camera footage from their business captured the explosion, and their employees were thankfully unharmed, though the business was very close to the crash site.
    The intense fires resulting from the plane's jet fuel and the materials stored at the facilities made the area dangerous and complicated search efforts. The nearby Ford assembly plant experienced a temporary power outage but was not directly hit.
    This is a separate event from the 2013 UPS plane crash in Birmingham, Alabama, which occurred in a wooded area short of the runway and did not involve the same specific businesses on the ground.

    Now they're saying Mean Joe isn't dead. It's someone with the exact same name.

    Jeez.
