In perhaps the strangest promotion ever, Roto Rooter is running a contest to win the ultimate toilet. Yeah, you read that right. Like something Tim Taylor would build on Home Improvement, the toilet includes an Xbox 360, flat screen HDTV, iPod with dock, TiVo, DVD player (no HD-DVD?), laptop, bull horn, bike pedals (?), beer tap, and a fridge. As Roto Rooter calls it, it really is a "seat of power." As an added bonus, the crapper comes with a Roto Rooter emergency button, which is kind of like OnStar for plumbing, apparently. Oh, and the toilet itself is a Kohler with a 1.4 gallon flush which is "not weak" according to Roto Rooter.The promotion is an attempt to bring the Roto Rooter brand to a new generation. Well, it's working guys, because Roto Rooter was the last thing we ever thought we'd mention on the pages of Xbox 360 Fanboy. Congratulations.
The contest begins January 24th on the Roto Rooter website.

I wonder if they'd install it all in my bedroom, and just forget about the toilet. Trying to pull a pint at the same time as aiming for the bowl is guarenteed that something will splash all over the floor, especially on the 7th or 8th visit.

If I won I'd let them set it up in the bathroom then move all the electronics after they were done.

Hehe, I should post that pic in my remodeling contractor's directory, www.RemodelingInTown.com. But I'd really be impressed by a flat screen web-enabled computer in my shower. Imagine checking your daily news while you wash up. What about that, remodelers?
