Nit (and useless fact of the day): The footprints in concrete are at the Chinese Theater (which is now dwarfed by the "We can't decide on a single style of building so let's just throw a whole bunch together and see where it lands" monstrosity that is the new Kodak Theater that they plan to hold the Oscars at from now on). The Hollywood Walk of Fame are all the stars set into the sidewalk, which run up and down either side of Hollywood Boulevard for almost the length of the entire city of Hollywood proper.

If you're really interested, here's the link to the Kraft story about the event (If only just to prove I did a little research :)

I don't remember seeing Kool-Aid Man's footprints the last time I was at the Chinese, which doesn't mean a whole lot, there are a lot there, and I'm usually getting a chuckle out of seeing the R2-D2 and C-3PO prints again to look any harder than that. :) Maybe when I go catch Harry Potter there this weekend I'll look for the big guy...
