Poll: Rob Roy Scoop Day

Free icecream tomorrow. But while I'm at it, I haven't posted a poll in way too long. So:
Knowing that "Rob Roy" in this case refers not to an alcoholic beverage or a Scottish cattle rustler, but the city council candidate pictured (who is also an employee at the local Ben & Jerry's); knowing that Free Cone Day is a national Ben & Jerry's Homemade Holdings Inc ("Ben & Jerry's") annual tradition; and knowing that Rob Roy designed and propogated the flyers like the one you see above (consider colour version, which is plastered all over the internet, as well):

Oh, and there's no call to action in it either. Yeah, it's totally a campaign poster.
We could debate until the kittens come home, my two cents.
Date: 2006-04-25 05:14 am (UTC)Then again I suppose some people know that Ben & Jerry's always has free scoop day, and it has nothing to do with Rob Roy for Davis City Council. Maybe the creators of the flyer should have considered making the phrase "27th annual" in as big as font as "Rob Roy." Or simply left the "have a scoop" phrase out to avoid people coming and thanking Rob Roy for their free ice cream.
And WikiPhil's right, your poll is a touch loaded <3
