Title: Assume the Position!
Post by: Cardinal Pizza Deliverance. on May 13, 2011, 06:14:17 AM
In Cherokee County, Georgia, this means bending down low enough to read what's on the police cruiser's bumper.

QuoteIn Cherokee County, "thinking outside the box" during tough times means "advertising on police patrol cars".

In a Georgia first, the city of Holly Springs has approved the sale of ads on its 14-cruiser fleet.   Small ads--bumper-sticker sized--on the cars' fenders.

The fee:  $10,000 for one year, up to $34,000 for four years.

The police chief is hoping to make as much as $100,000 a year off the ads--but despite some interest, there are no takers, so far.

I almost blew Pepsi out my nose on the way home from work, when I heard this on the radio.

I would love to see an ad for a criminal defense attorney on a cop car.

That would be brilliant.

i was assuming that's who it was targeted at....
or perhaps some organization like DARE or MADD.
or a religious group.

That price would be a bit too steep for DARE and MADD.  And many DARE programs are run by the police anyway, so it would end up being a bit of a circle jerk. 

In fact, for that kind of advertising price, I'm thinking lawyers are about the only companies that are going to be able to afford it.
