All,

I am interested in finding anyone headed to SeaWorld... My 4 year old's favorite item in the world is his blue Shamu lunch box that his kids meal came in during a trip to San Diego. We came home today to discover that the DOG ATE IT into bits... apparently my son had peanut butter pretzels inside that were more than the dog could resist.

If anyone is headed to SeaWorld, I would gladly buy your child's lunch and shipping in exchange for their blue Shamu lunch box (blue plastic, Shamu on the side, with a handle). Send me a private message here or post back and I'll contact you.

I am so in the dog house with my son for leaving the lunch box in reach of the dog! Thanks in advance for helping bail me out of this sticky situation.

Scott

Bummer, but is there any chance they are available on line? Or by calling Sea World and asking if they can arrange shipping?

Cute but no... this isn't even something they sell in the giftshops or anything like that. It's just free with purchase (a la the Happy Meal).

It looks like there might be one out on ebay though... Nice of the guy to sell a free plastic box for $16 + shipping. Gotta love capitalism.

There's a guy on the board here that actually works at Sea World. Maybe he'll be online later.

It would be really cool if they could have Shamu deliver it in person. Oh, but I'm just dreaming.

aww, poor guy. When was your trip to SD? They've changed their lunch boxes a few months ago. They're rectangular now.

I am a SeaWorld member and go twice a week (actually going tomorrow) so I wouldn't mind getting you one. I have one right now but its the new one. If you're looking for the one that is round, unfortunately those are gone. I actually had 20 of them I used for my son's 1st birthday favors and I can check if there's one lingering. But let me know which one you're looking for.

hi sbeach, i just checked ebay again and saw the $16 one you were talking about. if that's the one you're looking for, they don't have that at SeaWorld anymore. Sorry. I did notice someone is selling one at auction though. It's at $1.55 right now.

All,

Thank you so much for your kind words and sympathy! Anyone with a child under the age of 5 knows the lengths to which we as parents will go to replace that "special toy", especially when its demise/destruction /loss was your own fault.

I have secured one via eBay today and will inform my son that his lunch box took a short vacation and will be home soon.

May we never lose an actual live pet :-)
