Senator Craig "Bobblefoot"



So it's 1:30am and I'm not feeling well which is keeping me awake so I decided to check out the news. One of todays top stories is that a Minnesota Baseball team, the St. Paul Saints, will be handing out a "Bobblefoot" to the first 2,500 fans at the May 25th game. The Bobblefoot is a mini version of a bathroom stall with two legs showing inside the stall. One of the legs is spring loaded so that it looks like someone tapping their foot under the stall wall. This is all due to last summers big story that involved Senator Larry Craig from Idaho who was arrested in the Minnesota airport for allegedly soliciting sex in a bathroom stall. Senator Craig has since plead guilty to disorderly conduct and I believe that the whole thing is over with now. (I haven't heard anything new lately) I'm not quite sure what to think of the Bobblefoot promotion. I would have hoped that a major league baseball team would have been able to come up with a better marketing tool than this but I guess not. Anyways, I'm just glad that I'm not going to this game because the last thing I'd want to do is try to figure out where to display such a great souvenir. LOL!!!
