Bad Billboard Project

Jesus is Watching You Buy that Porn

It’s not bad, it’s not good, it’s just random strangeness. Coincidence or on purpose? Taken by Drew Newell near Farmington, New Mexico in 2006.

Don’t give teenagers alcohol, but if you do, it’s worth making it Bud Light.

Stole this from skateboard website Post 22. I’d like to think these two billboards were placed next to each other by mistake, because that would be funnier, but I’m starting to wonder if the beer billboard went up first and then the “don’t buy alcohol for teens” one. That wouldn’t be so funny. But what would we call it if…

Dang, I guess I better cancel my trip.

4 R Kids Sake, San Diego

This billboard might be raising awarenress, but it could probably raise a lot more with a few tweaks to the design.

1. Although the content of the billboard related to kids, it is not targeted towards kids, nor is it a kid-related product. The target is adults with kids, and the message is a dark one–if you leave your kids in…

Jesus Drove an SUV, Mohammad Pumped His Gas

Yeah, that’s just fantastic. I don’t think Jesus would be keen to endorse the message of this billboard. Who are these people? I consider myself a conservative but I sure don’t want to be lumped in with whoever came up with this one.

ERA / American Realty, Hank Parmenter, Florida

What is it about realtors feeling like everybody needs to know what they look like? I collect business cards, and I’ll be darned if I don’t have a single card from a realtor that doesn’t have a photo of them on it. At the same time, I don’t think a single one of the other 1,200 cards I have has…

Rob Calloway at the Civic Arena

Rob Calloway has a haircut you could set your watch to. I’m not even sure what to say about this one. I guess talk really is over.

Well, one thing, is Rob also The Bear, or is that who he’s fighting? Doesn’t look like the same guy, but maybe it’s just the hair. Ok, talk really is over now.

Butch Wax and the Hollywoods, Kewanee Schools Foundation

Wow, this billboard has everything. No, seriously, I don’t think there is a single “thing” that exists in the universe that was not included on this billboard. At least Butch and the Hollywoods look like they have fun.

This billboard is not next to a freeway, so it can get away with one thing that billboards next to freeways can’t, which is…

Smart Babies Want More, Seattle

admin — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 20:58:31 +0000

Apparently there is some group that goes around spreading the message that babies shouldn’t be circumcised. I’m constantly amazed how every cause, no matter how irrelevant and seemingly secondary to so many other causes, can attract followers who are willing to spend their time, money, and efforts to promote it.

Not the greatest job of vandalism anyway. With a little work…

American Coalition for Fathers and Children, Illinois

I’m sure the Coalition of Fathers and Families for New York is a fine organization. I’m also pretty sure they’re a non-profit, judging from their billboard which has numerous issues that wouldn’t exist had they spared some change to consult with a professional designer.

1. Too much. There is simply too much for someone to read as they’re driving along. A motorist would…
