This is absolutely amazing. I kind of like it - it's sort of a Jay Leno-style current events reference (note: I mean insipid and banal, and nothing positive), but it's so over-the-top that it's funny. I doubt that was the intent, but hell, it's capitalism.

Also the dude's line:

Earlier in the day, Mossotti acknowledged that the booth was "tacky and tasteless," but added that fairs are tacky and tasteless. "We're not running a high-end social event," he said.

... is brilliant.
