Save Toby! Save Toby! Toby is a cute lil bunny, and unless he gets $50,000 dollars June 30th 2005, his owner will eat him. posted to humor by Planettroy, May 2nd, 2005

all the suckers donating money deserve it, but for a couple of losers to try and earn money this way is so wrong it hurts.
And my guess is even if they hit $49,999 they'll keep the money and still eat the rabbit (if indeed this is all real. Of course if it's not real then it's fraud.) How is anyone to know if they eat the rabbit anyway even if they get $50,000. Not that hard to use all that money to buy another look-alike rabbit and make all the rubes think they didn't eat him.
I think it's hilarious. I'm too cheap too pay money for this, so I'll just let Toby die. I wish I had thought of this. He's already got 28,000+. I could buy a freakin' mini cooper with that load of cash!
My first reaction is jealousy... like Planettroy, I wish I had thought of this. You can't just look at the amount of money that has been donated, you have to look at the number of endorsements he's gotten as well, and his online store.
Why would they shut him down? What he's doing is not illegal. As long as he says what he's going to do its not fraud. He's not forcing anyone to give him thier money.

What really hurts is that I'm threatening to kill and eat zero bunnies and don't have $30,000 in my Paypal account.

Genius.
Brad, you don't have $3,000 in your PayPal account because you're too busy buying digital cameras and whatever shit with your PayPal money.
I said $30,000.
Damn this is a good idea! Who cares it the bunny dies, its just a bunny. And I bet it would taste good :).
This should be illegal.
That, or maybe I should make a website: "Brian is the cutest little cheeseburger on the planet"
If he doesn't eat a bunny, then I will. So it'll all balance out in the end.
I tried this once, but people sent me more bunnies to eat instead of money.
I just checked this out... Paypal has shut him down. Of course, you can still by a Toby Cottontail diner tshirt...

Check out the letters section and read some of the hate mail. Its well funny! Looks like paypal tried shutting him down once before.
Paypal shut him down so that Toby would die.
Paypal hates cute bunnies.
The creator extended the execution date to Nov. 6th 2006. Cheapass. I was really looking forward to this.
