Sometimes, when you start to laugh, it's hard to stop. This is exactly what WXMI-TV reporter Leigh Ann Towne experienced during her live broadcast at a local county fair.
The reporter in Holland, Michigan, at the time was standing in front of a pen full of farm animals -- goats and llamas -- when she spots two animals, shall we say, being affectionate. Towne starts cracking up and can't make it through the rest of her report without having "a giggling meltdown," as she put it.
"Sorry, their animal behaviors get a little out of control," she laughed.

Even Board President for the Ottowa County Fair, Jeff Myaard, chuckles and says "it is very distracting here people."
