“Josh Sankey has been issued a challenge: to make his way from New York City to Los Angeles with nothing but a smile and a refrigerated trailer filled with 3,000 pounds of bacon. That means no cash and no credit cards. The uncooked bacon is the only currency the actor and comedian has for gas, lodging, food and everything else he’ll need along the way. It’s not just the bare necessities either. Sankey’s managing to enjoy the sites along the way. ‘I got two tickets to the Jets game for six bricks [of bacon],’ he said. ‘They were pretty good seats, too.'”
