A Tribute Gone Awry, on the Wings of Pigeons. Unable to get doves for their 9/11 Memorial celebration, Jersey City officials got 80 pigeons from a poultry company and released them into the air at the unveiling of some monument. The birds had never been outside their cages and had never flown before. They were supposed to be made into soup. The crowd and buildings and the Hudson River were pelted by a flock of madly careening birds, landing on people's heads, crashing into windows and drowning in the water. Insert WKRP reference here.
