Mad Max Ubers Are Driving Around Seattle
If you live in Seattle and you need a ride to Valhalla, you're in luck. The driver-on-demand app Uber is running a promotion with the new Mad Max video game that puts passengers inside post-apocalyptic-inspired vehicles.
Seattle's gaming convention PAX Prime will play host to the Mad Max Ubers, so if you're looking to catch a Warboy, head to the Seattle Convention Center. According to the press release from Uber:
Open the Uber app in downtown Seattle and request MAD MAX.
Demand will be high and availability is limited, but if your timing is right, a Warboy will swoop you up in a car ripped from the world of the Mad Max video game and brought to life on the streets of our fair city!
Cars vary in size. Your Warboy will let you know how many riders (1, 3, or 4) he can keep safe from marauders.
Trips must begin and stay within downtown Seattle. The Wasteland is vast and gas is precious—the Warboys must remain near their Stronghold.
Your dollars are worthless in the Wasteland. Payment shall not be required.
If you got to take a ride in one of these über-Ubers, leave your story or photo in the comments! And please don't put spray paint in your mouth. That's very dangerous.
