Credit the folks at Kentucky Fried Chicken for trying to drum up some publicity in advance of Super Bowl XLII.
Donna Goodison of the Boston Herald reports KFC said it would donate $260,000 to a charity if a player from the Giants or Patriots would do the wing-flapping dance for three seconds in the end zone during the Super Bowl to help with their national promotion.
Not so fast.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said if a player does the dance, he may face a fine because KFC is not affiliated with the league.
Nice try.
Now, how about this idea: If KFC is offering that kind of dough for a silly dance in the endzone, what about donating the $260,000 to a worthy charity anyway.

Somebody will do it! Hell, I would do it at Gate D to get it donated to my favorite charity...
Agreed, NKR. 10g fine for 260g to charity plus a high probability of a commercial endorsement deal. For 3 seconds of silly? Yes.
NKR:
Have I ever told you this before? You are incorrigible!
NKR - I'll give you 260 cents ... ahhhh nevermind... Swickley Heights girls aren't known for their dancing abilities anyway.
Oh dear BnG - I'm worth A LOT more than $2.60... If you have to ask, you can't afford me... ;)
I'm sure you are NKR... I just had to take a swipe at your place of birth.. go Quakers! :-)
