Elephant Car Wash

By Alex in Animal, Car & Vehicle on Jul 12, 2009 at 1:38 pm


Forget bikini car wash! The new hotness in raising money in today’s tough economy is … elephant car wash!

The elephants at the Wildlife Safari near Eugene, Oregon are fundraising and they don’t seem to mind. The safari’s three African elephants, Tiki, Alice, and George, have a job at the new "Elephant Car Wash".

For $20, visitors can have an up-close-and-personal encounter with the elephants as they wash down their car.

There’s no guarantee that your car will actually get cleaned, but hey, everybody seems to be having fun!

    The Pink Elephant car wash has been a fixture of neon art in Seattle for over half a century:

    For those who want to visit... Winston is NOWHERE near Eugene! It's much further south. Check your maps before heading out...

    I just hope they have that song playing "The Car Wash".

    Great, Kalel, but an improved version: Don't FORGET to clean the trunk.
