It was probably worth it...

I'm soooo jealous... driving a Zamboni is one of my life ambitions. Doing a drive-thru with one is just genius!


Idaho Zamboni drivers fired after trip to fast-food drive-thru.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) - A slow run for some fast food in Boise, Idaho, has cost two city workers their jobs.

They were spotted on their Zamboni ice rink machines in a Burger King drive-through earlier this month.

The Zambonis are chunky vehicles with rubber tires that hit a top speed of five miles-an-hour. The drivers had to get through at least one traffic light to make the midnight "run" -- covering a mile and a-half, round-trip.

Neither the $75,000 Zambonis nor their $10,000 blades appeared damaged.

A city official say the two temporary city workers didn't seem to understand "the seriousness" of what they did.
