Plumbing company Roto-Rooter earlier this week announced the winner of their Pimped Out John Sweepstakes. Marcia Luhman, 55, of Oro Valley, Arizona (a suburb of Tucson) is now the proud owner of one of the most tricked out toilets in history.
The Pimped Out John, which was part of a contest Roto-Rooter ran earlier this year, is a customized $5,000 toilet which is designed for the extremely version of the average person who spends one year, four months and five days on the toilet in a lifetime. The toilet itself is a a Kohler Cimarron toilet surrounded by a 20-inch flat panel TV, Gateway laptop computer, Xbox 360 game system, DVD player, Tivo DVR, refrigerator with a beer tap and an iPod with stereo docking station that doubles as a toilet tissue holder.
Luhman, said Roto-Rooter, is semi-retired and says she entered the sweepstakes because she thought her 25-year-old son would enjoy the prize. "I did it as a joke because he is a little crazy and I knew he would enjoy it," said Luhman. The new toilet’s owner decided to keep the Gateway laptop computer for herself, with everything else going to her son.
