So, according to this Slate article, not only is Arby’s showing a 13-hour commercial, but it’s only airing in Duluth.

Arby’s is airing 13 straight hours of smoked brisket on television

I checked the date, and it’s not April 1, and I don’t think the NSA has gone so low as to manipulate my poor MacBook Air to fool me.

Maybe somebody's drunken stab at reaching the Norwegian-American community.

Anyhow, seeing as we're talking about it, it's working.

Where else would you find a market with such a worthless station you could buy for half a day?

As the New York Times article (two links deep) notes: The commercial airs Saturday at 1 p.m. and ends at 2 a.m. Sunday on KBJR 6.2.

And that sentence has to rank as the least significant TV programming note in PDD history.

As stupid as this idea seemed, I couldn't stop myself from watching for 10-15 seconds every time I flipped through the channels.
