Midnight Zamboni run prompts firings

By JOHN MILLER, Associated Press Writer Wed Nov 22, 11:35 PM ET

BOISE, Idaho - Two employees of the city's ice skating rink have been fired for making a midnight fast-food run in a pair of Zambonis. An anonymous tipster reported seeing the two big ice-resurfacing machines chug through a Burger King drive-through and return to the rink around 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 10. The squat, rubber-tired vehicles, which have a top speed of about 5 mph, drove 1 1/2 miles in all.

The Zamboni operators, both temporary city employees whose names and ages were not released by Parks and Recreation Department, had to negotiate at least one intersection with a traffic light on their late-night creep from Idaho Ice World.
Who could resist?

If they were that hungry why wouldn't they just walk or jog you could get there and back faster lol.
Although that would be kind of fun to drive the zambonie around town.

It would be so much fun though! Imagine the look on the drive-through guys faces when they see a Zamboni pull up. Especially two of them of man, that's a good time.
