Mobile Tours: Summer View from the Cab
Posted by Todd Buckton on Mon, Aug 23, 2010
Today's View from the Cab highlights what some of the PMG mobile tour drivers have been doing on their summer vacations. After helping our clients Drive Their Brand Experience in the best ways possible, these guys need to get the batteries recharged.
First we hear from Driver Tom who's checking in from the Kentucky State Fair. The State Fair is a wonderful tradition in the USA, featuring the best each state has to offer in agriculture, commerce, livestock, entertainment and...fried food. Here at RoadBlog we've been to many State Fairs and we've eaten everything from deep fried cauliflower to deep fried Twinkies. But the Kentucky State Fair has something we've never, ever seen: Donut Burgers.
That's right. A fresh - never frozen - juicy burger, fresh off the grill with all the trimmings, and instead of a bun? Oh yeah, slap that puppy between two donuts. In any other venue a donut burger would be looked upon with shock, wonder, perhaps even disgust. At a State Fair? It's downright brilliant. Thanks to Driver Tom for sharing this bit of Americana, even though we never heard if he actually tried a donut burger.
Our next stop on the PMG Drivers summer vacation tour takes us to Tennessee, where driver Dave has just landed a lunker catfish and sent us a photo. He wouldn't tell us where the fishing hole is, just that it's in Tennessee. He also wouldn't tell us what he caught it on, so the catfish in Tennessee are probably safe from many of us...but not from Dave.
What did you do this summer to get away from it all?
