A Billboard That Dispenses Beer Is The Best Form of Advertising

Recently, Coca-Cola unleashed a billboard that doubled as a soda fountain, dispensing its product to thirsty passersby.

Carlsberg, trying to one-up the soft-drink king, has created an outdoor ad that serves beer via a convenient ground-level tap. And, as we all know, if a beverage is gonna flow from a giant poster, we’ll take beer over sugar-water any day.

Appropriately-labeled, “Probably the best poster in the world,” the billboard was recently unveiled at The Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane in London.

Coca-Cola Made A Drinkable Billboard

The problem with most billboards, is that they almost never dispense their product to passersby. Coca-Cola has found a way to change all of that, and created a drinkable billboard.

The outdoor ad for Coke Zero is outfitted with an enormous straw running 4,500 feet, from a bottle filled with soda, down to a dispensing fountain at ground level.

The “drinkable billboard” was installed at White River State Park in Indianapolis, site of this year’s Final Four.

On a farm far far away… Oregon poultry farmer, Mark Anderson, reused a few discarded movie billboards to provide coverage for his chicken coop. By upcycling the vinyl ad for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Andersen created a very colorful and imposing shelter for his baby chicks.

Too bad they’ll have to stare at a promotion for Episode I during their formative years — the poor little future McNuggets.
