flipping Boeing the “bird”

07.10.08 | Comment?

Independent fast food chain in Moblie Alabama is flipping airplane and weapons makers, Boeing the “bird” in a local billboard advertising. Foosackly’s Chicken Fingers motivation was in reaction to the economic impact a halted contract had on the community, but we support any company that offers a certain finger to the makers of weapons. Great campaign!!!

flipping Boeing the bird

From Media Post:

Foosackly’s Chicken Fingers, a local chain in Mobile, Ala., turned a handmade sign placed on its restaurant doors into a bona fide ad campaign. Foosackly’s was none too happy with Boeing when a contract it had with the Air Force was placed in limbo, placing an economic development project in Mobile on hold. So the founder of Foosackly’s placed handmade signs in his restaurants expressing his frustration. The sign became a digital billboard on I-65. The message? “We would like to offer Boeing a finger,” with Foosackly’s logo at the bottom of the ad. See the ad here and here. Red Square created the ad.
