without the explanation, and just driving down the road, i don't think i would have realized this. i probably would have just thought it was a shoddy job. it's clever, i've never really seen anything like it before, but i don't like it.

i like it, but could be better as a CLP where you can see the chewing gum directly on the inside of the glas.

think is fake

spacecadetglow's picture 249 pencils

looking at it again, i agree. it does look fake.
if it were real though, i would still think the same thing.

You can see that it was done for real by the additional photos.
I think it's Gold.

that doesn't mean they actually hung it up.

Michael Wolmans's picture 94 pencils

Yes but I don't think they are actually claiming that it stuck up with gum. I think they just mean that it supposed to look like it

spacecadetglow's picture 249 pencils

oh, no, i understand that. but i don't necessarily believe that they actually put it up at all.

Hey spacecadetglow

Give me an address and I can send you photos of it going up as well as videos.
Thanks for the skepticism.

RELAX.

stueyT's picture 12 pencils

I am relaxed. Just wanted to send you proof so that you know it went up for real.
Think you might need to relax.

Nice.
Very nice idea.
Really. Really nice idea.
An idea from last year's Cannes outdoor Silver.
