[read more] UPDATE: We scouted some other locations, but none looked as promising as the place we did it once before! Meet in the Best Buy parking lot (near the back) at 9:45 so we can get organized!
Our first fake protest was such a success, we’re doing it again with the people at FlashMobAZ
People protest all sorts of serious things, and we think it is about time we protested something utterly and totally ridiculous. Or even many utterly ridiculous things!
WHEN: Sat, Sept 24th, 10am
LOCATION: 20th St & Camelback (in Phoenix)
We are having a fake protest where a group gathers with signs (BYO sign) but all the signs have nothing to do with any of the other signs. We are NOT protesting anything serious or political. All the signs should be purposely silly, so leave any real grumbling about immigration, same-sex marriage, and all that at home!
Instead let your creativity shine and come up with something that is funny, irrelevant, and will make people wonder just what the heck is going on!
Examples of Good Slogans for Signs:
* Down with Sunshine
* Math is Sexy
* Han Shot First
* Save Ferris
* I’m Lost
* Honk if Elvis Lives
Get the idea?
Since we’re going to be on street corner, our signs need to be big with clear lettering. It would be best to use 22”x28” or 24”x36” poster board for your sign - available at Walgreens, Michael's, or an office supply
store.
