Carnival's Piñata Breaks Record, Doesn't Break Open
After having a ball in Dallas, Carnival Cruise Lines brought its outsized publicity machine to Philadelphia this weekend, with an attempt at the record for world's largest piñata. While the company did get a Guinness nod, Carnival postponed the actual smashing of the burro because of "safety concerns." What an enormous let down!
Still, smart of the cruise line to not endanger the dental and overall health of the more than 10,000 people who showed up to watch the piñata meet its fate--and get a share of 8,000 pounds of candy.
The piñata will eventually get what's coming to it, though: Carnival promises the smashing will be part of a new ad campaign hyping its enormous ships. When exactly will filming commence? Carnival hasn't set a date.
