This is TRUE

(from thisistrue.com)

There are no loading docks for the bars in the Campustown section
of Ames, Iowa, so the beer distributors drop off kegs of beer next to
the fire station. But there are so many kegs hitting the sidewalk that
it gets cracked and quickly starts falling apart. To address the issue,
the city has installed a rubber sidewalk. (Ames Mid-Iowa News) ...Which
has had the handy benefit of reducing injuries to the falling-down
drunks, too.

(Well you couldn't have made that up, could you?!?)
