Man Actually Orders 'Fathead'

A 42 year old Cleveland man became the first known person to order a Fathead wall graphic Thursday after being captivated by the product's commercial featuring New York Mets thirdbaseman David Wright. Joey Litten was sitting at home watching ESPNews when he saw the advertisement and couldn't resist buying a seven foot tall plastic sticker of his favorite athlete, Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James.

"I'm too susceptible to advertising," Litten admits. "I order lots of things off of TV, but this is probably the dumbest. Even stupider than the time I ordered all that Tony Little exercise equipment. TV just makes everything sound so reasonable. I guess I need to learn some restraint, but where else can you get a 6'7" Darth Vader sticker AND a 8' wide replica of Jeff Gordon's rainbow car? I mean, who can't find a place for stuff like that?"

Litten's wife Beth was not pleased with the purchase and has removed the lifelike LeBron from over their bed. After years of tolerating her husband's impulse buying and eating food almost exclusively prepared in products invented by Ron Popeil, she drew the line at a huge vinyl LeBron James dunking on her head at night.

The Fathead operator that took Litten's call was as surprised as anyone by his order. Kara Rambasek has been a Fathead operator for three years now and Litten was the first call she had ever fielded that lead to an actual purchase.

"We get about six calls per day here and most of those are people offering to eliminate our credit card debt," she said. "I was actually taking a nap when he called and the ringer really startled me, I was pretty angry. I was considering sending him a David Beckham out of spite, but then I figured if this 42 year old is so pathetic that he took the time to order a giant plastic man to hang on his bedroom wall then I should just let him have his fun."
