The Chicken Shuffle: A Poultrygeist Pothers Peachtree Street
Imagine the scene: Atlanta, bustling metropolis of the South. Suddenly, chickens start appearing everywhere. Perched on lampposts. Strutting across Peachtree Street. Napping in mailboxes. The city was in a cluck! Theories flew faster than feathers. Was it a mass avian escape? A rogue poultry prankster? Turns out, it was a (slightly embarrassing) marketing stunt by a local feed store. Their message? "We have the best darn chicken feed in Georgia!" It certainly got people talking, even if it did leave the city smelling a bit...well, like a coop.

Detectives were baffled, the fashion world fretted, and teenagers across the country feared a sock shortage. The mystery remains unsolved, but whispers of a rogue sock collector with impeccable taste (and questionable morals) still linger in the salty Savannah air.
