So I was thinking as i drove my little barbie jeep (aka Geo Tracker) from northern CA down through AZ, NM, TX, OK, and MO....... (long drive)
In New Mexico I saw a bilboard in the shape of a buffalo, Above it the words, large and bright "See Baby Buffalo 2 Mi. Ahead" in a slightly smaller print below that, "Fresh Buffalo Jerky Avaliable"
Alright, I will admit that my husband and I were fairly sadistic, and thought that was funny.
OK, so that was bad, but I also saw another in MO that had me wondering, a cute baby with the words, "Who's My Daddy?" on the left and on ther right, "DNA, TESTING, FIND THE FATHER" under was a phone number,
What was I wondering you ask? well, I will tell you, Is it that bad of a problem that they have to advcertise on a bilboard on a major interstate? Because I am going to drive down the interstate, see a bilboard and thnk to myself, gee, i wonder, who is the father of my baby, I should give them a call....... (no offense intended, but i had been driving for almost ten hours, so to me that was funny)
Oh yes, and I visited the "Worlds Largest McDonald's" It might have the largest square footage, but feet, it still has the slowest service.
there were other things, but since my eyes are drooping i cant think of them........

The main thing about advertising is to place it in a way that it'll be noticed. The 'Who's my daddy'-ad seems to be perfect in that way, which you prove by remembering it, and referring to it.
Placing it on a billboard ny the road is in itself a great idea, when you drive a longer distance you start scanning for unusual things, just to make the driving interesting (I guess, since I still haven't bothered to get my drivers license, hehe).

True Maj, you do tend to look for interesting things while you drive......I just thought that it was funny, but again, I am sadistic, and slightly twisted......
