The popular car-based TV program Top Gear is approaching the 10 million fan milestone on their Facebook page. Deciding they wanted to celebrate such an achievement and embracing all that is good about social media, the show asked the fans themselves how they would like them to celebrate.
Giving the show’s history of destroying caravans in various stunts ranging from airship caravans and caravan conkers, it was only apt that blowing up a caravan was voted as the most appropriate act to let the world know that Top Gear has more fans on its Facebook page than the entire population of New York City.
The popular show is well on its way to hitting the 10 million mark, with 9,993,345 likes as of January 21, 2012.
