Wow, I have commented, but have not been blocked. There is one comment that I made that is still up on their page. Of course, it's in the section called "Recent Posts By Others on Battle Creek Bombers" - It's in the Lansing State Journal thread. They posed the question "Would you eat a Twinkie Dog?" Someone posted the clip from UHF, and the very last comment in the thread (so far) is mine. So, unless they take another look at that thread, comments referencing Al or Twinkie Wiener Sandwiches might stay up.

Btw, I'd wear a t-shirt with your design on it, Mike.

4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

Hey folks, I think the best thing that can be done about this is to reach out to Good Morning America and flood them with calls or emails. If so, they may issue a correction tomorrow or later in the week. That, I'd say, would be the best possible outcome since it's clear the BC Bombers have no intention of giving credit where due.

Here is a form for sending feedback to Good Morning America:
http://abcnews.go.com/Site/page?id=3271 ... %20America" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Please post it here if anyone can find a phone number or another means to contact GMA. If you have two minutes, click the above link and comment that Weird Al invented the Twinkie Weiner Sandwich 25 years ago and he should be given credit for the invention, not the BC Bombers.

Thanks for the link, Jon. I'm going to post a comment over at GMA now.

I also posted a comment under the video over at GMA/Yahoo! News. One other person commented before me, also stating that Al invented the sandwich. We''ll see what happens now.

Al Tweeted last night:
"At an airport phone booth - if you'd like to chat, for the next 30 minutes I'll be at (808)871-9398!"

Boo, missed it, darn sleep!! Did anyone see this in time?

I saw it pop up and it was busy instantly. I tried over a hundred times, mostly because Eva got excited and partially because I got excited

Al tweeted this RIGHT when I had a class to go to, but when I came back and saw this, I dialed anyway. First, it just rang and rang so I hung up. Then, I got abusy signal and realized Al tweeted this an hour ago and must've been on his flight already.

This is clearly for a Project. I wonder what it is.
