Excelsior Springs turned into Jurassic Park with a twist this Monday, as a herd of animatronic dinosaurs invaded the Tractor Supply parking lot! But these weren’t your average dinos –– oh no! This prehistoric party was co-hosted by the legendary Bumblebee Transformer, fresh off the set of saving the world (again!).
Hundreds of wide-eyed paleontologists-in-training got up close and personal with these giants of the past, snapping photos and high-fiving (or should we say, high-clawing?) T-Rex, Raptors, Triceratops, and a whole crew of their prehistoric pals.
But wait, there’s more! The one and only Bumblebee, larger than life and ready for selfies, joined the dino-mingle! While the line for I Heart Cookies’ legendary deep-dish cookies stretched longer than a Stegosaurus’ back (and let’s face it, those are long!), a costumed dino danced to the tunes, keeping the energy prehistoric-ally high!
I Heart Cookies Co., known for their super-deep, super-delicious cookies, brought their food truck magic all the way from Wichita, Kansas. And let’s just say, after meeting dinos and a giant Bumblebee, those cookies tasted even sweeter!
