On October 9, hundreds of people went to the Bazooka Joe Bubble Gum Blow-Off at the Eaton’s Centre and attempted to blow the biggest gum bubble of the day!
The bubble trouble began at 1 p.m. where bubble blowers were split into three age categories and competed for an iPod Nano and a trophy. The three categories included: five to 10 year olds, 11 to 15 years old, and 16 and up.
At the end of the day, the three finalists all competed with one another to try and blow the biggest bubble. The winner not only got a large supply of gum, but also becomes the first person to become a character in a Bazooka Joe comic!!
Salma Arbach, 29, blew a bubble that measured just over 19 cm wide and was the first person to win these bragging rights!!!
Do you think that you could top that? I think I could definitely beat her, I mean they didn't call me "bubblegum princess" in middle school for no reason.
Unfortunately, I didn’t hear about this competition until after the fact! Hopefully I get the memo next year cause I want to do this soooo badly! It looks like a blast!
So, who all is coming to the bubblegum showdown in 2011? If you’re coming, how many hours are you going to train for?
I'm training with the best bubble gum around!
