Billboards that caught your attention?

[BillyVance 34]

Well, how about it? Any billboards with advertisements or slogans that caught your attention?

Here's a couple to start with:

"A reminder about digging near power lines - DON'T"

And...

"Don't make me come down there - God"

That's just in downtown Birmingham, AL...

Anybody got any they want to share?

The one with two really annoyingly cute girlscouts holding a couple boxes of Thin Mints with a slogan that said "Resistance is futile!"

--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

It was good for me, was it good for ya?

See you in Dublin!

saw a pepsi billboard that had britney spears on it. Said"The pride of louisana" but the p in pride had been painted over to match the back ground.

The Black Velvet Billboard with the tall blond wearing the black dress reminds me of Chaoskitty. Or at least her avitar.
"Seductively Smooth" the ad says.
(not flirting i swear.)

I mentioned this the other day.

Logix billboard: Our CEO is a bigger geek than their CEO.

Thought it was cute!

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

SARS our local version of the IRS hasjust put a billboard advertising the fact that they're moving to a new HQ. The payoff?

"Pay us... a visit"

It's cheesy but kinda funny.

One of the people who jumps at my DZ showed me a picture she took in mexico of some beer billboard or something, with a parachute draped over the top and a skydiver mannequin trying to grab the beer. Pretty funny.

Who could forget those Chick-Fil-A billboards with the life-size fake cows scribbling 'eat mor chikin'

Have you ever seen the ones for DNA testing? 1-800-who's the daddy? or something like that?

Do you really need a billboard to advertise that service?

There's one (or used to be) on I 55 just southwest of the loop.

Saw this place down in Key Largo a couple of years ago & HAD to check it out!! I gotta say the food was pretty good!! It's hard to see but on the front of the building it also says LAW OFFICE.

My company prints billboards all day long (we are a large format printer)... I will have to make some screen grabs of a few of the funnier ones that are real boards and not works of photo shop.

There are some disgusting ones as well... PETA prints some screwed up shiat... We just did one with a bloody sheeps butt... I couldnt help but think of Clay!!!

Maybe I can work some magic and print some large banners for Dublin...

Goudha is for Buddha, and that's good enough for me!

I saw a really funny bumper sticker the other day read:

"KEEP THE EARTH CLEAN IT'S NOT URANUS"

Do signs outside of a business count?

I once saw on the sign outside of a radiator repair place....

"Mr. Radiator, a nice place to take a leak"

Saw this on a road trip down in North Carolina. What made it so funny/weird was the graveyard was the only thing there!!

Here's one that cost the Hard Rock Casino in Vegas about 1/2 million in fines. It was posted during the Nationals Final Rodeo event a year ago. In case you can't read it clearly, it says "Get ready to buck all night". I thought it was cute!

Hi Billy,
Anyone remember driving to Ghoulidge in the early 80's?? (try to think thru the purple haze!!!) A few miles up from the DZ along side one of those cotton fields was a billboard for some bowlwevil insecticide called "Pounce" and the billboard said "Pounce on cotton insects!" "Someone with the help of some paint, converted the "P" in Pounce into a "B" making it say,"Bounce on cotton (insects). Had to be a skydivers' influence there!!

PS. Got a foto of it somewhere in the archives, now to find it!!

Also one for the really old skydiving set, there was a Camel cigarette commercial back in the early 60's with world champ (Style and Accuracy) Jim Arender,"The man most likely to fall a mile for a Camel!!" Jim's likeness was on a Billboard up on some building in NYC for Camel cigs. and every few seconds his mouth would blow a hugh smoke ring accross 5th ave.!!!!!!!! Photo was in Parachutist (camera's eye) back then. Gotta dig into the archives for that one too.

Anyone else "remember" these two boards??

I saw a billbord for Skydive Illinois a couple years ago and thought what the Hell I've allways wanted to try a skydive.
