I hope it gets graffitied
With a whale
Whale dongs seem particularly appropriate at this particular juncture.
Then those dorks will learn!
I wouldn’t go that far. But it’s a start.
Sorry, I was just having fun with the folk etymology of dork, which isn’t actually specific to whale penises
Think of the poor corporations, there are so few places to advertise on!
I mean in a downtown core, where else do you advertise? Billboards? Other walls? Street signs? Busses? Storefronts? Paint on the street itself?
What alternatives did they have? You couldn't expect them to just put a temporary tarp over it or something, come on, that would have cost slightly more money!
What they're supposed to be content with just those few thousand options?
What a sad dystopian thing, to decide that a mural that's brought joy is somehow less important than your temporary ad, and worse than that, that there were so many other places it could have gone that wouldn't have destroyed a piece of art.
Here is a link to an article with a picture so you don't have to watch a video.
If you’d like to contact the North Texas FIFA Organizing Committee and tell them how much they and FIFA suck, their contact info is available publicly here:

Also, when your committee looks like the Crypt Keeper’s family reunion, maybe don’t post profile pics.
