This button is from Burger King’s Where’s Herb? campaign that aired in 1985 and 1986. My best guess is that I saw a Burger King employee wearing it and asked for it. Thanks, Unknown Burger King employee, for the button.
Though I probably repaid your company the time my friend RG and I saw that Burger King’s roof was on fire, went in and told the counter staff, then waited outside with everyone for the firetrucks. We may or may not have joined in a rousing “The roof is on fire” chant. Oh, those crazy college years.
I was a little nervous when you changed the format of Button Sunday, but I love it even more with the stories of the actual button are so much fun! i really am enjoying them!
Some of them I don’t remember their origin–but generally, even if I’m not sure, I’ll have some kind of story to go along with a button. Thank you for letting me know you’re enjoying them.
