Comments on: Rogers reverse graffiti ads are a ridiculous waste http://blog.fagstein.com/2009/07/16/rogers-reverse-graffiti-ads/ Can you think of a better name?

The last photo you have looks like a freshly poured 'piece' of sidewalk... It seems like a trend as well, the 'graf' is sprayed on relatively new concrete. Morons.

Reverse Graf is a very cool thing when done artistically, but when done by Ad Men it just reeks of a desperation to build 'synergy' with 'today's youth demographic'. On the plus side, these sidewalk ads DO provide an opportunity to urinate on the Rogers and Fido names. Something that has only been metaphorical up to this point. Agreed.

A couple years ago they were calling me incessantly to switch my house phone over to Rogers, including sending someone to my front door begging me to switch. Plus after the horrific treatment Rogers gave to some friends & family of mine, this is one messed-up company. I have to believe that Rogers are desperate for business.
