My theatre got a gargantuan chocolate bar from DreamWorks in thanks of promotional efforts for Norbit. Anybody else get this? They were even nice enough to include a small hammer to chip it to pieces (the chocolate, not the print).

quote: (inside the package)
Your wish has been granted: This is a giant slab of finest Belgian chocolate. Go ahead ... break off a piece and start enjoying it. To manage the extra thickness of this bar, we've included our special "chocolate chipper hammer". Hold it between two fingers and deliver a solid "whack" starting at a corner. You'll get the hang of it even without an owner's manual.

Sure did! Unfortunately the one I received must have been sitting in heat because one side was discolored.

We got one too. Odd thing, other than running trailers and having a poster up, we didn't promote Norbit at all.

Yep, we got one too. It lasted all of about one day as our day managers LOVE [Big Grin] chocolate. The little hammer did come in handy.
