Dr. King throws free hotdogs to the masses to celebrate his restaurant chain's grand opening.
On August 28th 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his famous "I Have A Dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. While he spoke, inspiring a nation to come together as brothers, he was also unwittingly participating in an Out of Context Interview with The Phat Phree's Tim Saccardo...


Tim Saccardo - Dr. King, I understand that you are planning on opening a chain of gourmet hotdog restaurants across the country.

Martin Luther King - I have a dream.

TS - Yes you do. But what makes you think that you can pull it off, having no former business or culinary experience?

MLK - It is a dream firmly rooted in the American Dream.

TS - You seem very confident. Why do you have so much faith in your ability to sell top-notch hotdogs at rock-bottom prices?

MLK - With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.

TS - Very true. Everybody, regardless of race, color, or creed loves hotdogs.

MLK - Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God's children.

TS - Right. And I understand that you will be the first to attempt filling the great void created by the lack of a major national hotdog franchise.

MLK - And if America is a great nation this must become true... So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.

TS - And where do you plan to go open these franchises?

MLK - Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.

TS - Wow. So you'll be selling affordable gourmet hotdogs almost everywhere, huh?

MLK - Every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city.

TS - I don't want to get off the subject, but I understand that your grandfather hasn't been doing well lately. He was born in 1867, wasn't he?

Dr. King's main competition in the hotdog biz.
MLK - One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.

TS - I'm sorry to hear that. Anyway, what brings you to Washington DC?

MLK - We have come to our nation's capital to cash a check.

TS - Really? I thought that your request for a federally subsidized loan to get the business of the ground was turned down.

MLK - We refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity in this nation.

TS - And that's not your only problem. I understand that fast food giants McDonalds and Wendys have threatened you with physical harm. Have you thought about retaliating?

MLK - In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds... Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.

TS - Isn't Soul Force an old TV show? But I get the point: You're really not going to let these bullies get to you.

MLK - I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.

TS - Good for you, Dr. King.

MLK - I have a dream today!

TS - Yes, you keep saying that. So, does this mean you feel satisfied with your life?

MLK - No, no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.

TS - Okay, I'm not quite sure I understand that. Does this mean that you will have special rolls for your hot dogs? Can you clarify?

MLK - This is our hope. This is the faith with which I can return to the south.

TS - Oh. Gotcha. And finally, I understand that for the first week your restaurants are open, you will offer every customer one free hotdog with the purchase of any hotdog of equal or lesser value. Is there a slogan for this promotional giveaway?

MLK - "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"

If you google "child molesters" and "Martin Luther King slander" today, TPP will come out tops. Well done guys!
PS: In that first pic it doesn't look like he's throwing a hot dog, it looks more like he's catching one. Come on Tim, you can do better than that.

I think that Brother King's establishment should only serve footlong hotdogs.

Now that is was a great black leader!
Followed by Bill Clinton.

Jesse Jackson, Sharpton, Cosby, Farrakan, Oprah, TD Jakes, M Jordan etc. should all go to the OJ Simpson school of culinary arts and practice on each other!

Yo Ant. Stacey Dash is not just a black leader, she is the ruler of the world.

i wish i could just give you like a half a point, because bill cosby is not a bad guy. he inspired one of my favorite sexual practices. but you are correct. Stacey Dash rules the world from her milf stronghold. this article was phenomenal. stupendous. fantastic. martin luther king went through a period where he didn't get the recognition he deserved because of that loudmouthed, showboating asshole malcom little, but if he had gotten this hotdog franchise off the ground, he would have crushed that bastard in the black power hour ratings. he could have had an ad where he is holding john holmes penis in a footlong bun, and he has a cleaver right above it, and the caption over their heads would read "Cutting the white man's check, and cashing it to feed the black community!"

It make sense, now.

And "the Alabama governor," instead of "having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, could have them dripping with sweet relish and juicy pig intestines/noses/feet/assholes.

I'll bet that chain had *two* kinds of orange pop, too.

P.S. Chic in digger's comment's link has nice rack.
