Wienermobile Crash

It has been all over the news today that the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile was damaged in an accident on a snowy road in Pennsylvania. But, I clicked on a link in one of the stories and came across this picture below of the Mini Wienermobile which was on the Oscar Meyer site. Finally a good use for a Mini.

Video of the crashed Wienermobile then the pic mentioned.

Few things are worse than a broken wiener.

Probably caused by a distracted driver from a RED state. Maybe someone will post a map indicating who the worst drivers in America are?

It must have been chili out with so much snow on the road. I wouldn't relish being the driver.

Never let your weiner get out of control - it can get you into trouble

He got himself into quite a pickle. The cops are grilling him at the station now. Maybe the escort car got too far ahead and he was trying to ketchup.

The guy who got rear-ended by that isn't happy at all. Not one bit.

I thought getting unexpectedly rear-ended by a wiener only happened in prison

It looks like the driver wasn't able to cut the mustard.

Nobody would want to admit having a mini-wiener mobile, but obviously the other one was too big to handle properly.
