Thread Name: BS: What is a Yankee?
Subject: RE: BS: What is a Yankee?
I recall reading about a billboard ad campaign launched for Uniroyal Tyres. The ad showed a young Hispanic boy by the side of the road, the text on the billboard said something like 'he knows only three English words; BOY GEORGE, and UNIROYAL'.
Billboard bandits got to work and modified the billboard to read; 'he knows only three English words; YANKEE GO HOME'
