So an Astronaut Walks Into the Apple Store…

By

astronaut-in-apple-store

Over the years we’ve seen lots of crazy things happen in the Apple Store, but we have yet to see an astronaut.

Until now.

The above photo, spotted by OS X Daily, was taken at the 14th St Apple Store in New York City. Apparently this moon man is part of an upcoming promotion for the Mini Cooper car. Very weird.

Update: Reader Brandon sent us this pic:

There was a big rocket with a new Mini Cooper strapped to it by the 14th St. Apple Store.

    New MINI Coupé. BMW/MINI is known for supporting iOS devices far superiorly than other car manufacturers.
