SpiderKEN

I've made myself look like a fool many times in my career.  I did it again today.

Carl's Jr. is doing a promotion for the new Amazing Spiderman movie.  If you wear a Spiderman outfit into a Carl's Jr. on July 4 you'll get an Amazing Grilled Cheese Bacon Burger free.

I was asked to facilitate a segment on the Morning Blend for this promotion.  I knew I'd have to wear a Spiderman costume and I also realized I'd look ridiculous.  The guys who've played Spiderman have had to undergo serious weight training to look as awesome as they do in the Spiderman suit (ask Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield).  I looked more like a fluffy cheeseburger eating Spiderman.  But, it got done and no real actors were harmed in the making of the segment.

Behold, the amazing SpiderKEN.

SpiderKEN, Grilled Cheese Bacon Burgers, and Ann on the Morning Blend.

Little known fact: Spiderman wears Chucks with black socks.

Look! Eyeholes!

If Guy Atchley or Jennifer Waddell ever want to go on vacation, I'm ready.

Sitting at the KGUN 9 news desk.
Breaking news: I look ridiculous.

My spidey sense tells me if I don't stop trying to climb on the KGUN news set..
I'm going to get fired.
