Enlighten me
07.05.04 (7:16 pm)   [edit]
Was watching tv for a few mins to determine there's nothing but crap on tv when I see a commercial that made me laugh my ass off..

[b]KFC's "Collectible" Dale Jr. buckets.[/b]

[b]A 'collectible' chicken bucket? [/b]Do you use this for 'special occasions' in the future? Or maybe as a planter? This confuses me.

Are there any rednecks out there that can shed some light on how a greasy paper chicken bucket can be collectible and what you would do with it?

Having worked at a KFC for two months when I was 19 and being a redneck, I too found the commercial hysterical.

Thing is, the bucket would be somewhat collectible if you got the Colonel's Extra Tasty Crispy, since it's only dipped in the shortening for 13 minutes, whereas the Original Recipe is pressure cooked for 15, completely immersed in shortening.

Getting a bucket of Original will make the collectible, worthless, but I can see someone selling them on ebay in the not-too-distant future.

Reminds me of a valentine I got from a friend of mine.

"My heart is revvin' up for you"
It was a chocoloate Dale, Jr. car, wrapped in the foil made to look like his #8.

I think the funniest thing about that commercial was the guy wearing the shirt "The only carb is under my hood"

I think that's a subtle stab at this atkins' friendly crap that's going around.

I lost 70 pounds, not by counting carbs, but by watching the fat intake and staying away from fast food and soda.

And for the record, the Coca-Cola C2.. .Sucks.

Hmmm... Aren't those things small - roach motels? Or do you have big-ass roaches like Palmetto Bugs in Tennessee?

i pondered that point last week also. Here in the south the #8 kid carries as much reverence as jesus and elvis.i've even seen rednecks with dale sr decal epitaphs on their back window of their chevys and fords.

my dad saves most collectable novelity items. although we are wellknown for our 100 7-up cans which when arranged properly resemble a certain abe lincoln, he has never collected a chicken bucket.

good luck on your quest to the answer of this plagueign question.

Hopefully, he won't get inspired to start another collection... like KFC chicken buckets.

I made the mistake of asking someone what the "3" meant on the back of the car. They looked at me as if I said I drink Pepsi.

No offense, but the dude's dead. He drove his car around a circle turning to the left... a lot. Get over it.

I haven't caught that yet.....hhmmm very interesting. I myself can't say that I'm even remotely interested in "collecting" old greasy paper chicken buckets. I must also admit it scares me to think that someone would. lol

Exactly. I shudder to think about the 'calibre' of person that would... I can see a case ending up on Judge Mathis about someone stealing Bubba's KFC Bucket Collection.

Maybe we should take a look at Ebay?

My only guess would be that its plastic not paper... MUCH more collectable :) ((If I actually want fast food fried chicken I goto Popeyes((

Ewwww...see I wouldn't use it as a planter either. Ugly.

I don't think I've ever purchased a "bucket of chicken" either. LOL

Me either. Something about food coming in a bucket just bothers me.
