Sorry if this is the most interesting part of the story for me, but why the river?

I’m guessing based on their work ethic, they were not opening individual cans and pouring them in.

Though they could have recycled the cans and made an extra couple of bucks.

Or just sold them to begin with.

But why not just dump them all in a dumpster?

why the river

All I can say is that this was Louisiana, where people generally find it easier and preferable to dump trash in the wild.
