Nike Air Griffey Max 1

On 3, who has the sweetest swing in baseball? 1, 2, 3… KEN Griffey Jr!

Ken Griffey Jr. was a huge part of Nike’s baseball campaigns in the 90’s. Now, his first signature shoe, the Nike Air Griffey Max 1, will be available to you since its initial release way back in 1996. The shoe will be available in April and retail for $140.

17th Annual Wing Bowl

January 30, 2009


We love chicken wings at Freshtoid, but apparently not as much as this guy. He ate 203 wings at the 17th annual Wing Bowl in Pennsylvania. They call him Super Squibb and the 23-year-old beat out a host of individuals with far more intimidating names including: Hank the Tank, Da Disposal and the 504-pound heavy Damaging Doug. Hats off and wings up to the skinny guy.

The Super Bowl is right around the corner and the it seems impossible for the ads to out do what we have seen in the past few weeks. Check out this gem from Bud Light.

Ben & Jerry’s Jamaican Me Crazy Sorbet

January 29, 2009

Ben & Jerry have the ice cream game on lock. Now Vermont’s Finest is taking a crack at sorbet. Freshtoid was given a sample of Ben & Jerry’s Jamaican Me Crazy Sorbet and we loved it!  The chunky pineapple sorbet with passionfruit swirls were a perfect combination.

This sorbet is available at your local grocery store in the freezer section. Much love and mad props to our boys Ben & Jerry for hooking it up.

President Obama’s Cadillac One

January 27, 2009

Riding in style is an understatement for our 44th President.  The Cadillac One for President Obama is a complete dream machine (not to mention, the most exclusive car on the planet). Based on the GMC 2500 truck line along with Cadillac’s Escalade and CTS models, the Cadillac One is part classy, part bad-ass. 

Weighing in at approximately 7.5 tons, this car has bulletproof glass windows 1.5 inches thick, 5 inches of armor around the entire car, and a blanket of woven kevlar lining the bottom of the car in case a grenade is thrown underneath.

Statue of Liberty Crown

January 24, 2009


Don’t know if you have ever been to the Statue of Liberty but Freshtoid was pretty bummed when we went there and found out we could not go inside, let alone go to the top of the crown! That is all about to CHANGE, as Obama has indicated he wants to see the crown open again. Soon enough we will all have the opportunity to rise to the top of the freshest statue in the land. More on the story and when you should plan that trip to New York here.

Anderson University Dunk

January 22, 2009


So it is not quite Vince Carter dunking over a 7-footer, but check out this nifty, small-college ball dunk…the best part is that one of the teammates appears to take a victory lap after the dunk.
