Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Crashes Into Wisconsin Home

MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. — One southern Wisconsin homeowner is probably not in love with the Oscar Mayer wiener. The famed hot dog's Wienermobile crashed Friday into the deck and garage of a home in Mount Pleasant, about 35 miles south of Milwaukee.

Police said the driver was trying to turn the Wienermobile around in the driveway and thought she was moving in reverse. But she instead went forward and hit the home. It sat in the driveway as if it were stuck in the garage Friday afternoon.

No one was home and no one was injured. No citations were immediately issued.

Both the home and vehicle suffered moderate damage, which Oscar Mayer spokeswoman Sydney Lindner says insurance will cover.

Police hadn't been able to speak to the homeowner as of early Friday evening.

I drove it in 1989.

One of the better lines I heard was while driving down I-35 in Minnesota. Attractive young lady in a ragtop yelled out, "Where do you put the batteries?"

Boy that elongated vehicle really rammed its way into that cavernous portal.

Ok, ladies, it's big, sure. But does it have stamina?

Hope they used a condominium (condimentium).

Have you heard? This guy Krupp is suing Thompson's water seal for failing to protect his deck!

Only in America!

How is it that vehicles from Michael Jackson's estate have already been sold ?

Afterwards, both the house and the wienermobile share a cigarette, with the house silently wishing there had been a little more foreplay.

"Honest officer, my wiener has a mind of its own."

A spokesperson for Oscar Mayer competitor Weinerschnitzel promptly denied claims their employees had sabotaged the Weinermobile's shift linkage.

"Are you crazy? Look at all the free publicity they're getting! We'd be better off paying for their tune-ups and brake jobs forever than letting THIS happen again!"
