The Infomercial King Comes to the Q

Admit it: the Snuggie phenomenon rocked your world for the whole five-minute infomercial. Besides, what’s cooler than a wearable blanket with sleeves? 

But it doesn’t hold a flame to the inventions A.J. “The Infomercial King” Khubani has been selling to the masses. The founder and CEO of TeleBrands “As Seen On TV” products is the man behind useful solutions such as PedEgg, Windshield Wonder and Crazy Critters and he’s always up to hear more great ideas that might make life a little easier. 

He’ll be at Quicken Loans Arena for Lake Erie Monsters Fan Appreciation Night this Saturday to field ideas from fans and future inventors. It’s the Monsters last home appearance of the season, so get your tickets, bring yourself and your very best pitch. Who knows? Your invention could even be the next ShamWow!

Guinness Book Snuggie Record Already Broken ...

Well, it was an honor while it lasted. Unfortunately, our bragging rights stood intact just slightly more than a month. After almost 18,000 Cleveland Cavaliers fans donned wine-colored Snuggies on March 5 to snag the title of "largest gathering of people wearing fleece blankets," Major League Baseball's Anaheim Angels shattered our moment of glory by dressing 43,510 of their fans in Snuggies April 6. Read all the gory details here. Maybe we can make another go at this during Browns season.
