Worst Flier of the Week?
Today it's too hard to pick just one flier as the worst of the week. Instead, I offer up three finalists and ask you to choose. Or you can go to Post No Bills and pick your own Worst Flier of the Week.
1. The "red carpet" party at a Thai restaurant with a dose of mini-blinds.
2. This busy mess where "Disgruntle" sure is a fitting word.
3. A rock show that looks like somebody barfed on the top of its flier.
Go for it: What's the worst and why?

Damn yooz, Oz! You gave me a headache with those choices (and so close to closing time!) but I have to go with #3. I feel like Nazi dude from Raiders whose face melted off when they opened the Ark. Nyup!

I think the last one. While I would NEVER attend the first 2 events, the last flier is messy and hard to understand. The name and address is impossible to read.

I vote for the first one.
- They didn't put #2 on the Million Dollar Elephant, so people will probably end up in the wrong place.
- They spelled MySpace wrong in the URL on the side.
- What makes them so red carpet?

so, they're all bad, which of course you know since you offered them up.
the first one is bad and sort of funny. two random girls having a bday party, wev. what makes me laugh is that the word glam looks a lot like clam. which is hilarious.
the second one is bad mainly because it's too busy. and i'm not sure why they went with the graphic off all the people with their hands in the air? also, it looks like they just discovered banners and text that gets smaller as it moves along.
but the real winner, and by that i mean the worst, is the third one. the top graphic is damn near illegible. the bottom is like spaghetti, with a mash up of color & design that makes it hard to read. and the middle looks like they wrapped a card in paper bag and then just put names on it.

Number three, yikes!! And yes, I have a headache from looking at that poster, but yeah, mini blinds was a pretty good second choice, lol!

robert makes strong points i didn't see in #1, but i'll still go w/3.
also, since all the pictures that are after the jump, it looks like you're presenting the picture for don monroe's post below this one on the frontpage as one of the flyers. which makes me laugh.

I say the 2nd one...not to mention the place is an absolute joke tries to be an "upscale lounge" in Hanford...lol..when it is really nothing more than a gutted out ballroom that reeks of paint thinner.

I think I've got a touch of vertigo after checkin out this hot mess #3.
Posted by: devoya at November 14, 2008 4:14 PM
This is tough because they are all so horrendous. I'm gonna say #2 cuz they seem to feature some douchebag that looks like he's looking for any reason to rough up someone. Then, the pic of the 'go-go' girls is almost completely unintelligble due to the misplaced fog machine. Lastly... its Hanford.

thats messed up a worst flier list,lol
is there another list or is this the first time you do something like this?
Posted by: tim at November 14, 2008 4:23 PM
It's definitely a toss-up, so I'm going to give the ugliest to the third flyer. #2 is probably the most ridiculous concept; brass knuckles included at the door? As for the Glam.. more like spam.

anyone ever been to the Million Elephant? i've seen some pictures and damn, nothing but freaks are up in that place. definently seems like a cool place to pick up loose women.

Yikes! I think the 3rd flier can be a new test for epilepsy!
Posted by: Tracy at November 14, 2008 4:27 PM
Wow...this is harsh...but in all honesty I seen all 3 of these fliers online and was thinking the same exact thing...HAHA...so...I guess it's good to be honest...I think all 3 of these fliers need help...but...gotta go with that #3...my man JAYEM can kick out a better flier blindfolded...I would bet a whole churro on that...

It's funny. I knew you were going to do this post, so I looked at Post No Bills ahead of time to see what I thought you'd choose.
These are the three I couldn't decide between. They all suck equally.
Posted by: Heather at November 15, 2008 1:48 AM
Oh, Heather, you're like any typical mother: "I can't decide...I hate you ALL equally!!"
It's number 3 by a mile.
And Mdub, you've never been to the Million Elephant? It's fantastic, and definitely not a place to pick up loose women...it's just a great restaurant, hardly a club at all. Thus the more ridiculous that flyer turns out to be.

I gotta agree with jon jon, I'll bet 2 churros on that. #3 hurts my face...Designers better be scared now that someone is watching these crappy flyers and could be put on blast! Thanks Oz!
