Okay, okay, I'll post about it.....If you haven't heard yet, yesterday the fine folks of AQUA TEAM HUNGER FORCE got into a weee-bit of trouble. Seems the electronic promotional items they placed around Boston caused a city-wide "Ahhh! Terrorists!!!!" panic, which brought in the bomb squad and lead to the arrest of said ATHF dudes! The items in questions were boards with lit-up lights that formed the image of a MOONINITE.... which would give you the finger. Funny.
“It’s clear the intent was to get attention by causing fear and unrest that there was a bomb in that location,” Assistant Attorney General John Grossman said at their arraignment. Er, not really. I think the intent was more to promote the show. Let's not get too carried away with ourselves here, buddy.
Outside the courthouse, the two dudes met reporters and television cameras and made this statement, “What we really want to talk about today — it’s kind of important to some people — it’s haircuts of the 1970s.” (seriously)
Ok, on one hand, it seems a bit overreaction in our new hyper-fear paranoia state we live in. But on the other hand, you simply do not leave homemade electronic devices with extended wires and blinking lights under bridges, in subways, and bus terminals. (article)
