Actually, I happen to know EXACTLY where the Bob Eubanks Pez dispenser is.
It's sitting in MTV's Santa Monica office, just off the main lobby. I saw it when I went there for a runthrough of a show that obviously has not come to pass; I was summoned there by Russian Roulette contestant producer Heather Auble. Incidentally, MTV's office is right next door to the FremantleMedia office where Mandel Illegan works.

And I bet you didn't know that that story was a well-crafted PR fabrication?

I didn't! Too bad, it's a good story.
I did pass this along to the Snopes people, though, so hopefully we can save someone else from spreading this vicious rumor in the future... :)
