Seven years after his season of “American Idol” ended, we think this just might be the most unusual promotion…. Danny Gokey‘s face is the inspiration for an 11 acre cornfield maze! It’s being used to promote an upcoming fundraiser at the Florence Civic Center’s Uptown Ballroom on Thursday, Nov. 17.
The charity event will benefit the House of Hope and Sophia’s Heart Foundation. Organizers report that the idea to use Danny’s face was agreed to by his management in just an hour! (Early consent was essential since mazes have to be planted that way, not cut into the shape!) and that Danny is expected to get a bird’s eye view of the maze by riding a helicopter over the field the day of the show!
The concert is sponsored by BREATHE, Lifetime Hearing, Freeman’s Bakery, and McArthur Farms.
There aren’t too many artists that let you walk all over their face…. but anything for a good cause, right Danny? 🙂

Fun to see! 🙂
Hey Lurker! When I found this picture this morning, I just KNEW I had to feature it. It was too much fun 🙂
So fun. 😀
a little weird, but cute idea
Yes, weird. That’s why I was drawn to it….
I think it’s great!! It looks like it was a lot of work! I’d be honored. It’s for a good cause, too!
At first I thought Corn was the name of a magazine and Danny was featured in it in some kind of drawing or puzzle game.
wow
I am Mrbing btw.I don’t know what I did to my screen name and avatar
Hi, Mr. Bing,
You have the old picture (of Danny) back, but a new screen name. Did you change browsers? Unplug your computer?
It may be something else. (?) A couple of others have said their avatars changed also.
MrBing, you used a different email address. One is a Gmail account, the other is a .com account…..
Oh right.The other day I tried to give a thumb up to one of your comments.But I cant do it with my usual account.So I log in my Gmail.So that must automatically change my account…..
