Oscar Mayer Wienermobile loses control, crashes into Racine home

Oscar Mayer Wienermobile loses control, crashes into Racine home
Driver accidentally hit the gas instead of brakes, lost control and crashed into home

WITI-TV, RACINE - The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile got itself into quite a pickle when it crashed into a Racine home Friday morning.

Neighbors tell FOX 6 the Wienermobile took a wrong turn and ended up on the dead-end street, Kenilworth Avenue in Racine.

While trying to get turned around, the woman driving the hot dog on wheels accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake and lodged the Wienermobile under a house.

Officials say no one was injured in the crash.

The Wienermobile was taken from the scene by tow truck.

No word on the extent of damage to either the house or the giant hot dog.

Oh, NO! Not the weinermobile!

29. I was in the Weenermobile and met Little Oscar and his driver
When I was in college ... woke up and a roommate said, "Look, it's the Weenermobile." Sure, I said but there it was, parked across the street from our rented house - about 4 of us. So two of us go out, cross the street and look at this strange contraption. I see Little Oscar sitting in the front passenger seat and he rolls it down. What's up? and he says, he get in. So we do. It was so strange. They gave us hot dogs. I kid you now. The driver was a big burly guy and Little Oscar was in his chef's regalia with hat on in the care, probably to impress us.

I'd forgotten all about it for many years. Hope nobody was hurt.

50. Yeah, I first dropped acid in college too.
Me and the Mr. KoolAid guy rode an iridescent dolphin through the McDonaldland hamburger patch.

But, your story is also good.

52. No that hurts;) It's believability stems from its unbelievability
Edited on Sun Jul-19-09 01:26 AM by autorank
Eergo, it must be true;) I come clean on one of the more ironic and humorous experiences, take that risk, and I opened myself up to ridicule. It does sound ridiculous, I agree. Why the Hell would Little Oscar be in the Weenie mobile in front of a house filled with four college slackers? But, then again, why not? It was like a prequel for the much touted and supposedly imminent singularity.

You've stimulated more on this ... It was an odd day because I was awake and out of bed by 10:30 a.m., not a custom of mine during any class schedule after my first semester, freshman year. That was the element of destiny. I should have been asleep. It was a special treat for Little Oscar to pick up on the fact we wanted to sit in the vehicle, hence his generous invitation. I remember thinking what an odd couple the driver and Oscar were. The driver was in a white shirt and slacks. He had a huge belly, like a caricature of a truck driver. And then there was Oscar, truly little, prim and proper. If I were to invent something, I'd say they offered us hot dogs but I can't nail that one down and I don't remember how it all ended but it was real ... strange.

Almost as strange as when I was sitting on a cliff overlooking the ocean with another friend one late night and two guys appeared, set up a tripod launcher of some sort, and fired 3 or 4 state fair class fireworks rockets out toward the ocean. They got up and left immediately after launching the last rocket. Now that's unbelievable, strange, but true;) Then Little Oscar showed up and said, "Who the fuck were those guys?"

49. I was thinking "newly-hired driver George W. Bush".
That way when they open the driver's side door a cascade of empty Heineken bottles tumble out, followed by Dubya, who yells "Merry Christmas!", belches loudly, and collapses on the ground.
