Snickers and crack???

Okay does anyone with any Urban credentials work for the Snickers marketing team……..I saw a billboard in Kent,Wa this weekend that said ……..”Sling some rocks at Chockoliath”………ok I get the throw rocks at Goliath thing, but sling some rocks……don’t they know that is street slang  for selling crack…….and this Billboard was not in the best of neighborhoods……I wish I had my camera that day.

I agree. I was riding through a low income urban area of Chicago this weekend and saw the same ad. My body cringed, I could not believe my eyes. I plan to take a picture and send it to Soledad O’brien at CNN; this ad has to come down. I see it as insensitive, and dangerous, you don’t see these ads in upscale neighborhoods.
