This has to be the weirdest thing I've ever heard of.  Tongue I heard about it on the news at work during lunch. A hotel in France that lets guests live like a hamster/gerbil.  Shocked

That hotel would probably do better if some hamster/gerbil fursuiters decided to stay the night!  Cheesy

If they had man-sized hamster balls I would make it my life's goal to go there.

LOL. Yeah I saw that. What makes it weirder is that you have to pay A LOT to stay a night.

I saw this on countdown with Keith Olbermann, and he made a small joke about the fandom at the very end.  Tongue

Here, about 40 seconds in:

Do they have giant hamster bottles that you have to drink water from? Do you have to make your own bed out of shredded newspaper? Do they make you eat giant Hartz hamster pellets? If you stay long enough does your poop start coming out in small round balls? Is there a big wheel you can run on?

At the very least, there does seem to be a wheel!

Doesn't that happen anyways when someone is constipated?

I wonder how long until we see those offered as suite rooms at the big cons like AC? Cheesy

BTW, Kobuk, that youtube vid you linked to doesn't work. I get a notice it was removed.

Quote from: related article
However, the price is soon to go up as today's hamsters need, according to the owners, Wifi and a giant TV screen.

I found this line in particular to be hilarious.  After all, wouldn't that kinda defeat the purpose of living like a hamster?

Wow. I made a joke about this a few years back and I thought it would be impossible.

What's next, an equine themed version?
