I greatly suspect no insurance agent likes to see armadillos or raccoons or rabbits come into his office for policies. It was a last-ditch effort that paid off big-time for Geico when it changed its name from Gecko and branched out from reptiles to humans.

OPENING MONOLOGUE – Words scroll by in a washed out yellow across a black screen as a narrator reads.
“On August 18, 1973, a group of five friends ran afoul of a cannibalistic family of serial predators. The film which you are about to see is an account of this tragedy. These kids could not have expected, nor would they have wished to witness as much of the mad and macabre as they were to see that day. For them, an idyllic road trip through rural Texas became a nightmare. The events of this day were to lead to one of the most grim, disturbing cases of our time. It will forever be known in the annals of American history as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.”
EXT. Road. Afternoon
The blacktop of the dusty, hot rod emanates heat. We slowly see a green van pulling into view as a dead, bloody armadillo lies on its back. As soon as the van comes into full view it drives right by us.
enough already with the armies! little known fact: armadillos can read. the depression rate among army literati is astronomical and rising largely due to periodicals of this typel free the armadillo! salvation a la mode. the armies of the road, unite!!
