(AP) POM WONDERFUL PRESENTS: THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER SOLD, Pa. (AP) — The central Pennsylvania city of Altoona is changing its name to make some money — and to help independent filmmaker Morgan Spurlock make a point.
Spurlock is giving the city $25,000 to be named after his newest movie — "POM Wonderful Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold." The name change starts Wednesday and lasts for 60 days.
The Sheetz convenience store chain, which is based in Altoona, helped broker the naming rights deal. The company paid up to $250,000 for its "role" in the film, which skewers the proliferation of advertising in American life.

Free promotion by the MSM for a fellow leftist, Morgan “Supersize Me” Spurlock.

I saw a couple of episodes of this clown’s TV show. He proved himself to be a typically stupid and dishonest leftist.
Atoona, PA. Visited there once way back. My only memories are the hills and my first and last experience eating Scrapple.
LOL—Scrapple is one of the few things that distinguishes Altoona.
That and Texas Hot Dogs, and being the birthplace of Janet Blair, Charlie Crist (ugh!), and alas, me.
no sheetz?
I thought Altoona was already famous by being mentioned in Groundhog Day...
I prefer Wa Wa.
I didn’t see that movie, actually. I do recall that in “Flashdance” in the 1980s, the Jennifer Beals character was purportedly from Altoona.
Hey, now - scrapple is prrof that God loves us.
Well, that, and beer.
I take it that you are not a fan of Irish pudding?
same thing.
Kidding!!! Just kidding!!!
good one!
Oh Sheetz, with their giant red gas trucks that say “SHEETZ” on them?
Freegards
Sorta gives a real world view of the straits small communities are in, and - defacto - their taxpayers as well under the “Ones” economic “full court press”..... >PS
