Schwan's Corp. (parent company of Red Baron pizza) announced today
that the Red Barons are permanently grounded. After 28 years of
sponsorship they are redirecting their marketing efforts away from
air shows.

We spent two days following those guys around when we were
weathered in coming back from Oshkosh. Nice guys. One of them
lives near our property in NC.

It's their own loss. The only reason I ever bought Red Baron
pizzas was because of the squadron. I'll go back to another brand
now.

A decision that probably was made by some twenty-something marketing
genius who wants the money to post kewl video ads on YouTube and
send young hotties to grocery store parking lots to hand out free
samples to teenage boys.

I like te hotties idea..

Free samples of what, though?

A piece of... pizza. But we all know what the male libido translates
that into.




Goes without saying.
