 Don´t Miss This Great Festival | | By: BizarreNews | Published: 01/23/2000 | | |  |

FRUITA, Colorado - It´s not too early to begin making plans for Fruita, CO´s annual Mike the Headless Chicken Day festivities. Each May, the western Colorado town throws a giant festival in fond remembrance of Mike, a rooster who literally lost his head in 1945 -- and miraculously lived on to achieve fame, if not fortune, as a living, breathing, headless fowl. According to the Denver Post, Mike´s life changed when farmer L.A. Olsen chose him as the main dish for supper on Sept. 10, 1945. Nobody knows what went through Mike´s head, except an axe, when his owner placed it on the chopping block and hacked it off, but Olsen sure got a surprise when Mike stood up and - bobbing and weaving -- headed back to the barnyard, sans head. Mike´s nonchalance amazed Olsen, who watched as the headless fryer mingled with his fellow poultry and attempted to peck at corn kernels.

Hershey's Kisses are called that because the machine that makes them looks like it's kissing the conveyor belt.
