      Haha, expensive mistake indeed. Bet someone got fired. I like the “eh, fuck it, put it on anyway” attitute, good work.

    2. DeezTeez says:

      i’d hire them

    3. jesse says:

      that’s actually a marketing strategy as bad as it sounds. people put signs upside down like that to get you to read them

    4. wayne b says:

      photoshop

      • Eldix says:

        No it isn’t dumbass. This is a moving company out of Tallahassee, Fl. Half of their trucks are like this.

    5. AWF says:

      picture was removed i think cant get it to show up

    6. charles says:

      out of tallahassee fl he has several eye catching trucks including a moooving truck painted like a black and white cow

      • FAIL IN FAIL says:

        so there are different colored cows?

      • Eldix says:

        Yes, FAIL IN FAIL, there are different colored cows. Maybe if you got out of your house once in a while you would know that. Completely right, charles, I lived in Tally for 23 years, they also started to do zebra designs, but stopped shortly after…

    7. nofinway says:

      if i saw that on the side of the road it would get my attention so maybe that was there target.

    8. Myles says:

      This is on purpose. I’m from Tallahassee. They have serveral ads and billboards like this.

      • Eldix says:

        Damn Myles, what a coincidence. Born and raised there myself. Went to Wakulla High for 3 years and Rickards for my senior year. I got the hell out of that place though, way too fucked.

    9. Conq says:

      Marketing tactic

    10. davy jones says:

      i dont think its a fail at all.
      like Conq said, its a marketing tactic to make you look at it and laugh, and you most likely remember the name of the company after :)

    11. maximus says:

      as long as it does not distract anyone while they are driving.

    12. WordUp says:

      HAHAHAHA, this is in the town i live in. He does it on purpose for attention. Works, apparently :P

    13. me says:

      Yep, I’m from Tallahassee as well. They did this intentionally.

    14. loraliromance says:

      I actually work for this company. Yes it’s for attention. Works pretty well, apparently haha. We get calls all the time..”Mind if I ask you, I’ve always wanted to know, why are they upside down?”..Me: “What?” Them: “The trucks, I’ve always wanted to know” haha.

      Yeah we have a “CowUnit” that is a cow colored “Mooving” truck.
      A zebra “Hakuna Matata” haha.

      I lol’d when my friend showed me this got put on here.

    15. DDL97 says:

      biggest fail ever.

    16. Blake says:

      I’d love to see what happens when a distracted driver tries to read this and the driver’s in the wrong lane and a semi’s coming and the driver only looks back long enough to shout, “OH SHIT!”

    17. James says:

      A fail this is not. If you actually look at it from a marketing standpoint, it’s pretty brilliant. When you’re driving down the highway and you see a truck with it’s print upside down, after laughing for a second you start reading it. And you have to concentrate. Congratulations, you’ve just remembered “Mikes’ Moving” and stored it in the back of your head. Next time you look up movers, it’ll come up as something familiar. People like familiar. long term win.

    18. Josef Mengele says:

      the fail is that theres no ad?

      • food rapist says:

        Adblock Plus actually somehow BLOCKS the photo?? I had to disable adblock to see it.

    19. french says:

      “IF YOU CAN READ THIS, FLIP ME OVER”

    20. madtmaxXx says:

      Im from Tallahassee and have seen these trucks and i always wondered why they are upside down.

    21. 1800filk says:

      Madmax, the reason IS so you see them. Remember, you have spent a great deal of time thinking about those trucks. Epic WIN.
