This Easter season, some very talented and creative Zapponians decided to put the influx of Peeps easter bunnies to good use by taking part in the first ever Zappos Peeps Challenge. Each team was challenged with creating a Peeps diorama of whatever theme they wanted.
The themes ranged from completely adorable (Brady Bunch Peeps) to downright creepy (Silence of the Peeps). In the end, it was Team Peeparazzi—Amy V., Shanda F., Bernadette T., and Jen B. (aka “JB”), and their fabulous rendition of “Peeps of Love”, that won the Challenge.
Their Peeps version of the hit reality show “Rock of Love with Bret Michaels” completely showcased all the debauchery and guilty pleasures that the show is known for...complete with a puking Peep contestant! (see photo below)
Congratulations ladies! Looks like that obsession with reality TV has finally paid off!
Amber gets to go through and edit all the fun comments that people post on our site. So, she's seen her fair share of weird things, but nothing seems to weird her out more than a Zapponian of the Day interview with our very own Brett H... I don't blame her.
Our Product Descriptions are painstakingly written by our fabulous Content Team here at Zappos.com. They are a rather competitive bunch...so, I present:

The air was cold on our fingertips, the mood was cheerful and uplifting, people from all around were gathering, and the water was absolutely freezing. There were costumed heroes everywhere, from Nerds to Bumble Bees, all there for one cause. Raising money for Special Olympics Kentucky. This being the second year in a row that Zappos has participated, we had 32 Polar Bears take that icy dive this year, and raised a total of $5,785 winning us the Frigid Cup.
Since started in 1999, there have been thousands who have taken the plunge for Special Olympics. It's an amazing event that helps out so many people each year, giving Special Olympics athletes the chance to prove that they have the drive and passion to do great things. It's amazing to see how many people come out year around, to show support, and freeze their tails off after jumping into the frigid water. But it's all worth the outcome. With events taking place in Louisville, Newport, Lake Cumberland, Owensboro, and Lexington, they raised over $510,000.
If you have ever considered supporting, and even joining in on this event, don't hesitate. The atmosphere is exciting, and dressing up or not, you are are guaranteed to have a blast. Since this years Polar Bear Plunge is already over, you have a whole year to save money, and encourage people to take a gander at how exciting it can be to help out our Special Olympic athletes.
