I Have Always Thought This Since I Was 4.

I Was Playing The NES Ghostbusters And I Thought Stay Puft WAS The Michelin Man : ]

To read this makes me sorry for him.
I mean, even his old mates at Michelin replaced him with some computer generated guy that doesn’t look half as good as the original.
I really hope this story doesn’t end like Kurt Cobain…

It’s an old French word for “fat guy”.

The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man was designed to be reminiscent of characters like the Michelin Man and the Pillsbury Dough Boy. So yes, there should be a resemblance.

BooHoo! HooHoo! Thanks for poking fun at my family everyone. How am I ever supposed to be a real (dough) Man without my fathers around?

He began as a stack of Michelin white-walls.

I think it’s the hat. Drugs made him think it was a good idea to melt it to his head and now he’s just pissed off at the hat.

I always thought stay puft was supposed to be a mixture of the michelin man and the pillsbury dough boy.

Anyone can claim first but michelin man was first…first appearance in 1898 and one of the most famous company mascots ever. Damn french, always beating us at being fat and friendly (not too sure about it tho).

Most epic whitewalls ever?

What I want to know is why is the Michelin man white? Tires are black. Now sta-puft is a marshmellow- of course he should be white!

What about the Pilsbury guy?

Well it may cheer him up to know they are mulling another ghost busters movie getting some work could really help him out. If that doesnt work he could always reinvent himself as a smor.

True story. I lived in Boise for a couple years from 2006-2008. Me and Stay Puft who I met through a friend at work would go hang out at The Torch and watch the dancers.

He’s really a cool guy but you can tell he is tortured inside and really misses his old life. He saw his replacement on a commercial one time when we were hangin at my place and watching TV, and I could tell he was choking back tears. I tried to hook him up with this girl I work with, but she said he had trouble being intimate.

I dunno, I think its a shame to see such a good person get beat down so badly by life.

The main difference between the Michelin Man and Stay Puft is that, of course, only one of them is “Ribbed for Her Pleasure”…

Such a shame… Starts off his career all ripped, has a great job and a great life… Look at him… so happy… And then the drugs… Now look at him, let himself go, packed on some lbs… And so angry at life… What a waste…

The Michelin Man’s name is Bibendum. That ought to get you points in a trivia game!

michelin man actually changed his name to stay puft and moved to boise after his steroid dealer was arrested and sent away. so since mich couldn’t find any work, his body went to hell. he lost a bet at a local bar, which is why he’s wearing that outfit now. it was really a sad story. it was on vh1 – where are they now. you should check it out.
