Popeyes’ cure for the holiday air travel blues
Remember when United Airlines denied boarding to a woman’s emotional support peacock? Popeyes is ensuring travelers have an airline-approved carry-on poultry option this holiday season with the unveiling of its “Emotional Support Chicken.” Beginning December 18, the Popeyes in Philadelphia International Airport’s Terminal C will hawk three-piece chicken tender combos in clever cardboard carriers guaranteed to attract the unwanted attention of everyone in your row.
Here comes the pizza-themed Monopoly game you never wanted
Tired of playing Scrabble with your in-laws over every holiday break? Do not despair, for Monopoly Pizza is here. Instead of playing as an iron or a shoe, players can be a cheese grater or a pizza cutter, and then traverse the game board acquiring as many types of pizza as they can. Why exactly this exists is not clear, but nonetheless, it’s available now via Amazon and for pre-order at Walmart.
