"Horrifying Lottery Mascots Terrorize Gallery" [Philadelphia Will Do] (Thanks to Nilla!)
]]>These Penn Lottery people need a few more credit hrs of graphic art and marketing before they green light another marketing campaign.
]]>@PinkBox: PINK PENNSYLVANIA PENISES,LOL THE THRE P'S!
]]>I guess they kind of have to have arms, though, or it's just a jersey-wearing shaft with a weird fingernail on the back of its head.
Also: I am embarrassed to be from PA. At least the commercials featuring actual fingers aren't as weird as the costumes.
]]>are they looking for john bobbit?
reminds me of an old porno named edward penishands
genius pure genius
]]>Pennsylvania Penises!
]]>They're trying to give you ideas for when you win. This idea: what you should blow your money on.
]]>In cases like this I like to think that there's someone like me out there who floats this idea as a kind of joke, then can't believe when it gets picked up, and sits there muttering "oh please oh please" under their breath as it inches from conception to actuality.
I like to think that, at least.
]]>And, on top of that, the PA Lottery office paid 100k for the 5 finger design.
Citizens of PA, I give you your investment of tax dollars. Severed penises, I mean, fingers! Rejoice.
I am now convinced the only people capable of solving the banking crisis are the fine folks from the PA Lottery. If they can give us this for 100k, imagine the possibilities with 700 billion dollars.
]]>I'm preventing myself from posting a semi-gross phallic comment.
]]>In the pictures, it looks like they have flesh-colored fingernails on the back of their heads. Very creepy looking!
]]>Do they have black ones? is tha thing cercumsied or noncercumesised penis looking finger or nose,lol. ;)
]]>At least it's not that damm Gus the groundhog-part of me feels creeped out by him, another part of me want's to punch him out!
]]>I think they should have put red latex thimbles on top.. you know, to show that they're fingers!
]]>They look much more like fingers in the TV commercials...
]]>They gave everybody the finger....
and btw, where's the fingernail?
]]>@eekfuh: I just hope they don't participate in a sack race.
]]>@AnderBobo: Hilarious!
]]>I should have showed up in my vagina costume. That would have really put things in context.
]]>Penisylvania Lottery
]]>Anyone involved with the concept/production of these mascots and didn't utter the question "Do these look too much like giant basketball playing penises?" should be fired, plain and simple. I'm not in advertising/marketing/promotions but seems like a rule of thumb would be to never have a mascot that can be mistaken for genitals, unless you're in the sausage/hotdog/sex toy industry.
