A giant donair costume auctioned off by the Government of Alberta
The Government of Alberta said the costume "was a prop for an advertising campaign and is no longer required by the department."
  • A Canadian restaurant spent nearly $12,000 on a donair-sandwich costume in an Alberta government auction.
  • The six-foot-three costume was described as in "excellent" visual condition but "dusty."
  • CBC reported that the costume was made for a traffic-safety video but was never worn.

A Canadian fast-food restaurant splashed out around $16,000 Canadian dollars, or $11,850, on a massive unworn but "dusty" costume that resembles a donair sandwich at an auction held by the Alberta government.
