Iowa State, yeah right D:
The sidewalk?
But why?
Yeah, I'm on an even SMALLER Iowa campus. No chance.
@ Tim
Look at everyone while walking around campus. They aren't looking at people, that way you have to stop and chat. Most people are looking at the ground, walking as quick as possible to their next class. Hence, ads on sidewalks.
@Budboy311
Well, the way I see it, they could have posted it in a more believable place.
All the people who have never heard of the game might just assume it's a joke and not look into it. If it were posted on a pole somewhere, it might be taken more seriously and investigated.
I could go walking around to tell you if there are any here. I wouldn't know right now though, I already spend all of my day in lab.
@ Tim
True, but this is more of a wink wink for the people who do know, or at least have heard of it. I know where I graduated from the sidewalks were covered, because that IS what got attention. Very little was on trees or boards, and if there was one copy there, there were at least five on the sidewalks around that same posting.
What the fuck is a Syracuse?
I would take one of those if I saw it in public.
Hey at least EA tries some marketing on your campus.
Here in Mexico..not much videogame marketing.
I don't know if Destructoid mentioned this, but I saw some Little Big Planet viral marketing at my college (Columbia). They put a miniature billboard up advertising for the game under a bush--it was cute.
Even after you told me about these, I didn't go to look for them, but this is surprising, since SU is a hotbed of...nothing.
haha, I find this neat seeing as I live about 15mins from SU.
Syracuse??? I went to SU, froze my nuts off 9 months out of the year, ate Dinosaur BBQ and Sal's Birdland wings, worked at Media Play in Shoppingtown Mall, and tripped in Oakwood Cemetery every Halloween. Is the Lost Horizen still open? What a dive!!!
Found these all over the place at U of K
I'd totally snatch one of these if I saw it. And then run away like an idiot and hide it somewhere in my room.
Makes sense. In western NY, everybody's always staring at the ground. Gloomy Guses, all of 'em.
@rdaneel72:
I live in Syracuse and I can tell you 1) Dino rules. Never forget that. 2) Media Play has been closed for a while, but I used to love shopping there for games 3) Oakwood Cemetery is creepy as hell. You're nuts for having done that and it's awesome. 4) Lost Horizon reopened after a period of years where it changed ownership/names and was generally stupid. Now it's less dive-y but still attracts good crowds for shows.
I saw that and shat a brick or twelve.
Did you see the Pac-Man cosplayers near the Dome two days ago?
