BOSTON (AP) - People aren't quite done piling on New England Patriots receiver Wes Welker for a dropped fourth-quarter pass that helped the New York Giants win the Super Bowl.
An online pawnbroker dumped hundreds of Butterfinger candy bars in Boston's Copley Square on Tuesday with a note: "Thank you Wes Welker."
The tongue-in-cheek stunt by Pawngo.com drew takers for the candy and a citation from the city for commercial dumping.
Pawngo CEO Todd Hills says in a statement to The Boston Globe the Denver- and Chicago-based company "thought Boston fans might at least get a laugh out of it." He says the company respects Welker and the Patriots.
