Miller Apologizes for Folsom Street Poster

[Lars]

I think it says something about where Miller sells more beer.... Hmmm lets see middle America (Bible Belt) or Nor Cal??

This is quickly turning into a discussion that should be in the off topic area. That said, I don't think Miller should have had to apologize for this poster though I completely understand why they did. The bad publicity those bigoted idiots could have caused would have cost Miller a bunch of sales. So called moral/religious issues aside, money talks.

Well said, I am done.

Funny thing is that the poster totally captures the what the Folsom Street Fair is all about. It's not my thing but I have to say that it's very well done.

Hell, it's not even close to The Last Supper. I was just taking pictures of a stage production of The Rocky Horror Show where they were posed like the painting with Frank as Jesus.

Compare: http://paac.cintaks.com/v/shows_2007/ro ... 4.jpg.html (poor angle) and http://www.haltadefinizione.com/en/ (16 gigapixel The Last Supper)

That said, I think it's an awesome poster.

Hey HB,

Was that the production that they do in Ishpeming? each year. I don't remember which small town outside marquette it was but I went up and saw rocky horror about 4 years ago in that area around halloween time and it was awesome. Been a fan of rocky horror from then on.

years ago a gruop of friends including myself went to this fair just to see since we heard it was crazy. It looked like that add except that the age range was wider and some looked even freakyer.
Nice Job Miller for keeping it somewhat real. The Dikes on Bikes should have been featured though
