2009_01_pinkpan2.jpgIn his publicity blitz to promote The Pink Panther 2, the Pink Panther has been spotted around town. And he definitely ran the gamut of photo ops: Early in the day, he helped out at a Burger King (there's a Pink Panther tie-in planned)...and then he rang the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange!

The Dow Jones fell 226 points (2.7%)—maybe the Pink Panther was familiar with Wall Street guys eating (competitor's) fast food?

The movie's star Steve Martin is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend (musical guest Jason Mraz)—it'll be his 15th time and a record (Alec Baldwin has hosted 13 times).
