Brickshelf-Fund: Playroom Russebuss 2007

Introduction for non-Norwegians
----------------------------------
Preparing special theme-busses (so called "Russebuss") is a tradition
among Norwegian high-school graduates, where they compete over who has
the best bus, the best show and, what is most important, the loudest
sound system. The busses then drive around making sure that normal
citizens can't get enough sleep from end of April to 17th of May, which
is the Norwegian national day. Playroom is one of such busses

Description
-----------
Playroom-guys have chosen LEGO as their main theme and asked me to help them
with interior decoration which is almost fully covered with LEGO (a LOT of it!).
The end result was a bus filled with over 40000 LEGO plates and bricks in
various sizes. The walls are covered with about 12000 red 4x8 plates on top
of baseplates. There are two mosaics, 2 logos (a small one made of plates,
1m long, and a big one made of bricks, 3m long), a big waving Norwegian flag,
a smiley, a shipwreck-themed vitrine, some beer-shaped LEGO-bottles, and a
part of wall covered with all their names. And yes, the driver's area is
also quite LEGO-ised
Unfortunately, some LEGO had to be sacrifised to achieve full coverage (I
approved cutting 32x32 baseplates into other standard sizes, but they went
boldly one step further... which in the end actually resulted in lack of
material).
As far as I know, LEGO is fully aware of what is going on, and I am sure
this gives them a lot of publicity (mostly positive ;) ), something they
do need on the otherwise relatively badly covered Norwegian market.

Pfui!

Matija is noch nich so lange hier, der sieht in den "Russen" noch was Folkloristisches. Allen anderen ist's eine Pest und Plage und würden alle Schüler wirklich dahin geschickt, wo alle sie hinwünschen, wäre es eng dort.

Ballermann und ABSaufen bis zum Notarzt sind nur zivile Vorspiele. Als ehem. Lehrer fällt mich.a ja vor allem auf, daß diese sog. Feierei nur vor dem ABSchlußexamen stattfindet. Denn danach kommen ja die Ehrenrunden.

Grummelige Grüße
