TODAY hosts cozy up with Snuggies



Wearing The Wild Side

A model wearing the new Wild Side leopard Snuggie struck a pose on the runway at the Snuggie Fashion Show during New York Fashion Week. The sunglasses could be a fashion statement... Then they could be concealing the identity of the model who, like the earlier Matt Lauer, wouldn't be caught dead in a Snuggie.

Allstar Marketing Group, which makes the Snuggie, was introducing new looks for their much mocked backwards bathrobe, which went viral once Conan O’Brien mentioned it on the “Tonight Show.”

In Redding CA, it even replaced a raincoat! Police received multiple reports (Monday 10/25/10) that a man wearing a Snuggie was exposing himself to passersby... He was identified by neighbors who noticed him running nude through a nearby apartment complex.

The police report states that the man, who seemed to be under the influence of narcotics, was booked into Shasta County Jail on suspicion of public intoxication... And improper use of a Snuggie: he was only holding the Snuggie up to his body, possibly in an attempt to make people think he was covered.

Doing The Wild Thing

Humorist Lex Friedman and Megan Morrison (who actually owns one) have created the “Snuggie Sutra.”

It's covered-up coitus, undercover banging, bonking and boinking for those lovers who don't mind licking a little lint. The book contains graphic designer Morrison's very easy-to-follow illustrations for some traditional positions, including “The Manket” — where the man wears the Snuggie on his back while he covers his partner, keeping her warm — to more adventurous positions such as “The Banana Split,” which really has to be seen to be understood.

Their website says: You own a Snuggie & have sex. It was inevitable.

But Wait There's More!
