I Wanna Drive The Zamboni

A couple of idiots in Boise, Idaho decided to make a midnight run to Burger King on a pair of Zamboni machines which they were employed to operate at a local ice rink. They were, of course, fired.

[livejournal.com profile] gmjambear and I often watch Hockey Night in Canada thanks to our local cable provider carrying the CBC affiliate in Vancouver. There has been a series of ads showing a kid whose ambition, it is later revealed, is to drive the Zamboni at an NHL venue. The background music is "I Wanna Drive the Zamboni".

Oddly enough, one of my roommates during Spring Break my senior year in college actually did drive the Zamboni at the OSU Ice Rink.

My brother works in conjunction with the Sabres and also manages a college ice rink - he's helped me make the Zamboni dream come true for a few of my friends.
