So we did this thing at Burning Man called Snack Food Glory Hole, right? The premise was simple:

They lined up for snacks!

Line up, kneel, get a mysterious snack from a stranger shoved through a hole into your mouth. It went over pretty well. But, alas, we're not doing Burning Man this year, and Snack Food Glory Hole is taking a little hiatus. However, it turns out that someone else took the concept and restaged it at CONvergence!

Apparently there is some kind of law of conservation of snack foods at work here.

That group of space cheer leaders that came and cheered us is bunch of MN girls who started doing that at CONvergence. As far as I can tell from the flickr contacts this person doesn't know them.

Incidentally, after a few years of me doing Luftwaffle, The Onion had one of those front page story summary things that made the same wordplay (they also used my backup joke: Blintzkrieg). I have no idea if they came up with it independently or not.
