SpongeBob(s) Stolen From Burger King(s) - Ransom Notes Left
<snip>

TROY, N.Y. -- Missing: giant, yellow cartoon sponge wearing square pants.

Police say inflatable SpongeBob SquarePants figures have been swiped from the roofs of Burger King fast-food restaurants in New York, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Maine, Tennessee and Utah.

In some cases, a ransom note was left.

Burger King is running the SpongeBob promotion in connection with a new movie for the animated Nickelodeon TV character. The show is on top of the cable Nielsen ratings.

Police admit that stealing SpongeBob may seem funny, but it's still a crime. They don't think the thefts at different locations are connected.

1. 19th Century Fox will do ANYTHING for news, won't they?
They just cant handle the fact the Sponge Bob beats O'Liely in the ratings! I bet these poor Sponge Bobs are locked up in John Gibson's basement!
