OOPSIE!! WTF were these idiots thinking?


Boston publicity ploy leads to 2 arrests

BOSTON - Several illuminated electronic devices planted at bridges and other spots in Boston threw a scare into the city Wednesday in what turned out to be a publicity campaign for a late-night cable cartoon. Most of the devices depict a character giving the finger.

Peter Berdovsky, 27, of Arlington, and Sean Stevens, 28, of Charlestown, were each charged Wednesday night with one count of placing a hoax device and one count of disorderly conduct, state Attorney General Martha Coakley said.

The two men worked together to place the devices, Coakley said in a news release announcing Stevens' arrest.
Highways, bridges and a section of the Charles River were shut down and bomb squads were sent in before authorities declared the devices were harmless.

But ATHF kicks ass!

No cartoons in prison. But I'm sure they'll be the main stars for the late night puppet shows.

I read that! Marketing ploy gone awry.

I seriously don't doubt that the cartoon network is available in some.

The Blair Witch project (marketing) was the best.

If the Boston PD cannot tell the difference between something that looks like a bomb, and a FAWKING LITE-BRITE, they desere to have the city shut down.

I heard that!

We are "so afraid" now that even bad marketing stunts can cripple our daily lives... And now we are on such a witch hunt to blame, some nerds will go to jail over this...

Sad...............days these are....

Hahaha, I saw this on the news and laughed histerically. They even blurred out the middle finger of the Mooninite in one shot! They probably could have found better places for these signs however. I would have been very amused though if I saw one of these. Poor guys that they're probably going to lock up for a long time now.

Oh boy, here they are!
