A Bobble Head?

The St. Paul Saints, a minor league baseball team, are giving away a truly one-of-a-kind promotion at today's game. While many sports franchises hand out bobble-head dolls, usually depicting their players, the Saints are handing out 2,500 "bobble-foot" knickknacks.

According to the Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune, "The keepsakes consist of a miniature bathroom stall with a couple of lower legs and feet. One of the feet is springloaded and 'taps,' which, the Saints' press release says, is in honor of National Tap Dance Day... The team also takes pains to note: 'It doesn't matter if your tapping style is done with a wide stance or is used as some sort of code.'"

Thanks to my good friend Dave Potts for the "heads up" (pun totally intended) on this one!
