From Science Fair Flop to Poop Bag Boss: Chris Bae’s Do the Doo™ Origin Story

From Science Fair Flop to Poop Bag Boss: Chris Bae’s Do the Doo™ Origin Story

When your average middle schooler procrastinates on a project, you get a half-crumpled tri-fold board and maybe a Mentos-in-Coke explosion. When Chris Bae procrastinates? You get Do the Doo™ – a Dalmatian-dotted neighborhood poop station that somehow became a full-blown community fixture.

This week on Every Day’s a Train Wreck, Marley sits down with Chris, a rising senior, debate captain, varsity football player, guitar shredder… and, oh yeah, the teen entrepreneur behind the only poop bag station worth franchising.

🚧 From Procrastination to Poop Innovation

Chris didn’t exactly plan to become the “Poop Bag Kid.” His 8th-grade science fair project was thrown together with wood scraps, duct tape, and sheer desperation. But instead of another sad volcano, he built a functional, neighborhood-ready dog waste station – complete with bags, trash bin, and (eventually) community fanfare.

What started as a “last-minute project” has turned into a long-term legacy.

🐕 The Great Wind Disaster of ‘23 (aka The Poop Tornado)

Like any empire, Do the Doo™ has faced its trials. Most notably:

  • High winds ripping poop bags into the stratosphere 🌪️
  • Neighborhood sign-swapping chaos
  • Marley’s relentless push for QR codes and monetization

But thanks to Febreze and sheer stubbornness, Chris kept it alive – and the community loves him for it.

🎸 Football, Debate, and… Poop Duty?

Here’s the kicker: Chris manages all of this while juggling:

  • Varsity football practice 🏈
  • Debate tournaments where he basically filibusters for fun 🎤
  • Band practice (yes, he shreds guitar, too) 🎸
  • College applications looming like doom

Somehow, between AP classes and tackling quarterbacks, he still maintains the poop stand.

💡 Why Marley Thinks This Should Be a Franchise

Marley’s convinced Do the Doo™ is the next great suburban franchise. Picture it: branded Dalmatian dots, QR codes for donations, maybe even a TikTok campaign. Forget lemonade stands – this is the real teen entrepreneurial blueprint.

😤 The School Fair Snub We’re Still Mad About

Oh, and by the way? Chris didn’t even win at the school fair. Which, honestly, is a crime against innovation. While the judges were handing out ribbons to papier-mâché planets, Chris was solving real neighborhood problems. Justice for Do the Doo™.
