The Alan's giraffe is the mascot of Alan Garner. At the beginning of The Hangover Part III, Alan Garner was driving his car with a trailer attached carrying his newly bought giraffe on a freeway in Irvine, California when he drove under a low bridge, decapitating the giraffe. His head smashed into the windshield of a family car (with the family having been surprised by the giraffe), and the family were scared so much that they crashed their car, causing a huge pile-up that either damaged or blocked every car behind Alan. Sid Garner wrote huge checks for this incident.
