Simpsons real life Kwik-E-marts

Spark

Sorry for another Simpson's post, but thought that this was the most brilliant marketing for a movie I think I have ever seen! They are taking 6,000 7-11's around the country and turning them into a true to life Kwik-E-mart from the Simpsons show. Here are some shots of it.

given the movies rating they thought it would be best to avoid alcohol. Pretty lame excuse if you ask me, but hey they have a squishy machine!

Just drove by the one in LA. Line around the block (100+ at least) at MIDNIGHT on a Tuesday. Double-you-tee-eph?

how much money do these guys have?
well, howevermuch... its gonna get quintopled [uhh is that right?] when the movie comes out. i don't think any body is as hyped as i am! [and hence, not as prone to terrible dissapointment]
