Jackpot! An odd find… Destiny??

So we were out at this new Antique place my wife found, she’s one of those antique freaks– and what before my wandering eyes did appear??

BURGER KING DOLLS

I thought to myself– Could this be some sort of Fate? Destiny? Now I have to figure out what to do with them. And I thought I’d leave it up to Yirmumah readers to let me know. Post your ideas inside, and see a couple of mine off the top of my head….

My first impulse was — PRIZE for a contest of some kind. Hmm….

Then i thought maybe it would be cool to have an ebay auction with some of the BK art AND the doll comes with it, signed by BURGER KING BOB himself. Maybe put a hole in it’s chest??? hahaha.. Let me know your ideas.

We just HAVE to do something with these.

    I think Bob should eat one.

    Burger King had (and does) have some weird advertising and promotional items, but it’s nothing compared to the The Freaky Universe of McDonald’s Commercials.

    But you know you have to stuff him with fries first.

    I think a contest with one doll and some BK art as a prize is the way to go. The other one you should just give to me because, let’s face it, I’m awesome.

    Have Bob take one out to the woods. And shoot it. Or strap a couple of m80s to it. Just make sure you get the video. ;)

    OR you could do the ole travling garden gnome bit but with the KING. Write something Yirmumah related on his chest and we could mail him back and forth between Yir-Readers. Take a picture of him near some sort of local monument and or McDonalds and send him on to his next location.

    But Brandon’s idea is a good one too.

    I didn’t read the entire blog post before I replied!

    DJ’s idea about the art is a good one. :)

  7. DJ Says:

    Good ideas everyone…. We’ll keep all this in mind.

    Bob blasting it with his real shotgun might make it explode.. hmmm…

    The first thing that struck me when i saw the picture was : “Oh my! these are very cute voodoo dolls. Didn’t know Burger King was meddling into that kind of stuff. figures.”

    I could totally go for the ‘travelling King’ bit. Too bad I won’t be working overseas any more, I could have gotten some great pics of him in Africa.

    I’d love to see a puppet sketch like the Homestar Runner puppet sketches. Don’t know how you’d go about doing that tho…

    I’m all for the “pass him around” idea. Sign me up for that. :)
