So what IS Burger King doing to promote LOTR? Fear not, from this spy report, it doesn’t sound like we will have to tolerate “The One Onion Ring.” Ringer Elenhim sends this in:
“Hey there. An inside source from Burger King tells me that a 10 minute preview (perhaps the same one from Cannes) was shown to restaurant managers today at a National Franchise Association Restaurant Managers Conference in Birmingham, Alabama. They were also informed of various promotional items to be available with the release of FOTR including: 19 individual character toys that are described as “interlocking toys with voice and light capabilities” and also 4 goblets depicting different characters. “
I guess I’m going to have to start hitting Burger King…but it is going to be extremely hard to break my newly found passion for ‘In and Out Burgers.’
