With any luck it will be crushed and burned under a jack-knifed semi as
it passes through Atlanta and they'll stop hyping that stupid movie.

Aren't you a ray of bitter sunshine - that's a little strong, no?

The Herbie movie is harmless - if you don't like it, don't go see it.
Regardless, to see bugs on tour is a cool idea.

Oh yea, let's bash a movie with a decent rating that I can enjoy right along
side of my 6 year old !!
And besides, he thinks it's really cool that there is a whole movie about a
car just like mommy's !!!!!

I can't wait !!!

Well, the bug is not a blue oval, nor is it a bowtie and thank goodness
it is not a ram puff.

Just a good old VW!! Deal with it!

I for one will be there when they roll into Duluth, GA on the 31st. It
looks like the car is transported in a trailer. Not sure if they'll
take it out or not.

Are you kidding? It's on a trailer? What's that say about the owner? Trailer
Queen! Damn, has he no balls or integrity at all?

It's for display and they want it to look it's best at all times. I can't see what the big deal is.

Judigng by the pic on the tour site, it looks like it. The owner is
Walt Disney I think... his balls disintegrated a while back.

I also just found out there's an event happening on Friday the 3rd of
June at Gwinnett Place Mall, 6PM-8PM. Radio Disney will be there with
Herbie (obviously not the tour Herbie).
