The United Nations headquarters in NYC is supposed to be one of the most secure building in the world, yet a man, dressed as KFC founder Colonel Sanders, was able to waltz in and shake hands with a diplomat.
It was all a publicity stunt.
According to the Britian Telegraph, KFC has been "lobbying" for Grilled Nation to be accepted as a member state, even writing letters to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on behalf of the fictional chicken-loving republic. Montas dismissed the correspondence as "absolutely void."
The actor, named by KFC as Robert Thompson, had his photo taken while shaking hands with President Ali A. Treki of Libya. President Treki denied having a meeting with Robert; he says he just shook his hand. Robert then sauntered around and posed for photos in the main General Assembly hall beneath the UN logo.
After a while, security realized they were being punked and Robert was escorted out of the building.
A spokeswoman for Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary-general, says, "There was some lapse in security and the individual in question was, on the initiative of one security guard, taken into the UN."
Really? How long did it take for them to realize that Colonel Sanders died in 1980?!!!
