I forgot I had this. It's a beer pump badge for 'Goldmark Microbus' beer. A friend gave it to me a few years ago because they knew I had a splitty.

| Be on the lookout for a 3 dimensional 1/4 scale cardboard split bus complete with the head of Guy Fieri poking out the rear window advertising Kings Hawaiian bread in your local grocery store. |

It would be cool to have a bunch of those and ride them cardboard grass sliding on a steep hill. |

not sure this is a cool bus pic, but I spotted this after some unrelated web searches.
does the Split forum have a thread for splits used in advertising or such?

I haven't been to that place in a long time but that bus has been there for 20+ years. It was made from a real bus cut in half the long way. The owner told me he bought the deck lid from a guy who got mad when he found out that he had cut and narrowed it. The restaurant booths were made from old chairlift chairs (Ludlow is a ski town). Cool place, with good pizza. |

All beer labels must be approved by the US government, so I guess we could say that the government approves of buses.
