I remember seeing this in a very old music magazine, when hanson used to be really popular in London.
I laughed my ass so hard back then, I couldn't possibly forget them.

In South Park, Colorado, the boys once thought they killed Ms. Chokesondick when she swallowed their seamen. Later, some of the seamen build a shrine to Tweak, some build one to Cartman, fight over it, and blow themselves up. They appeared just as they do on that package.
