Elephant Car Wash

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!
