[[File:|thumb|250px|A Happy Blimp advert in GTA III.]] | |||
'''Happy Blimp''' is a burger shop in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto III]]. It is advertised throughout the city on billboards with the slogan "Inflate Your Waist!", referencing the unhealthy fast food they serve. Happy Blimp seems to be a parody of the American [[wp:Blimpie|Blimpie Sub Shops]] or the British [[wp:Wimpy (restaurant)|Wimpy restaurant chain]], the name of the burger shops refers to Blimpie and the logo and the food served refers to Wimpy. | |||
Happy Blimp plays a part in a radio advert for the reality TV show [[Liberty City Survivor]], a show where "20 recently paroled guys [are] equipped...with grenade launchers and flamethrowers and have to hunt each other down..." In the advert, a fan says "I was grabbing a sandwich at the Happy Blimp, and suddenly two guys crash through the window and start shooting at each other. I was so excited, I didn't even notice I'd been hit! After that, I was hooked on Liberty City Survivor. I watch it every day in the hospital!" | |||
