    And why is he resigning? He realizes it was just made out of snow, right?

    i think it's because he crossed to the other side of the street just for fun
    the illinois dot was not happy
    but to lose his fucking job is a tad extreme, imo

    From the way they were all screaming, I first thought that there was an actual person inside the snow man. Dwight Schrute maybe.

    he would have blown up the bus with a rocket launcher.

    Lets not jump to conclusions. Perhaps the family are natives of the planet Remulak and they built it while taking a break from consuming mass quantities.

    True but do they consume mass quantities with a noose on their arm? I don't think so as it appears they are from a peaceful planet.

    It would probably make headlines had a bus run over this particular snowman.

    I saw this the other day on the weather channel
    Why was a snowman in the street anyways??... cause who built it wanted it run over.
    They were probably gonna do it themselves and the bus driver beat them to it.
    I would have run it over too...sounds like fun!
    Now this person has no job, this is so stupid and frustrating.
    I hope they take him back, it's Christmastime :(

    ok i saw this the other night as well. At first I thought there was a person inside the snowman by the way everyone including the media and the people filming were reacting to it. So i watched it and was expecting a body to come flying out or some blood, nothing. I don't see the big deal at all. Maybe he was just having fun, or hit a patch of ice? If anyone should be punished it were the two a-holes filming it and laughing after the bus ran over it.
