Never Forget

Today is the one year anniversary of the terror plot to put viral advertising around the Boston area. Luckily, this ingenious plot to spread the word of Aqua Teen Hunger Force was put down by the brave law enforcement officials and firefighters of Boston. Link to Boston Herald

Do you remember where you were when you got the word that Ignignokt and Err had shut down Logan airport? Never forget that viral campaign. Never.

It cost Sean and Peter (right) their beer money, and 2 Million dollars in fees to the Cartoon Network.

Actually, if you read the article, they were both unable to parlay their two minutes of infamy into a book and movie deal - so therefore they are complete failures.

But this is about the campaign. Was it worth every penny? You bet. Not only was that headline making material one year ago, but we're talking about it again. Now. Today.
A whole year later.

Worth every damn cent.

Never forget...

It's really shocking that a guy with dreadlocks would be up to shenanigans like this.
