Colonel Sanders infiltrates the UN
| Quote: | A man dressed as KFC's Colonel Sanders successfully snuck into restricted areas at the UN Headquarters in New York and can be seen here shaking hands with the new president of the UN General Assembly, Ali Treki.
A spokesperson for Ban Ki-moon, the current UN Secretary General, said that an investigation into the security breach has begun.
The break-in is understood to be a publicity stunt organized by KFC as part of a wider campaign to promote a new menu range. This campaign has included several previous attempts to ‘lobby’ the UN – including a letter written to Mr Ki-moon asking for grilled chicken lovers to be represented at the assembly – for inclusion of the fictional ‘Grilled Nation’ as a UN member state.
News that the actor who dressed as Colonel Sanders for the stunt has been named by KFC as Robert Thompson will surely disappoint those die-hard fans who maintain that the iconic Colonel did not die in 1980. |
