JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- There is a nationwide rash of thefts of 9-foot-tall and 9-foot-wide SpongeBob SquarePants inflatables propped on the roofs of Burger Kings.
More than 50 SpongeBob-nappings have been reported from Florida to Utah since the pop icon started appearing on fas***ood restaurant rooftops in a promotional tie-in with his movie Nov. 11. Employees at a Burger King near Palatka are among the latest to report the theft of the $500 balloon last weekend.
Now anyone trying to get that back through at the airport is very optimistic[msnsmile2]
