Worst Flier of the Week Vol. 6
Welcome to the first '09 installment of Worst Flier of the Week, where we make fun of bad graphic design and silly nightclub promotions.
This week I offer up a few contenders and let you weigh in on what's most hideous. If you like all these, head over to Post No Bills and find something that's worse. Oh, and if your flier is on the list, consider hiring some better graphic designers.
Here we go:
1. TRYING WAY TOO HARD
Look, I realize that 2039 is really, really trying to get people through the doors, but a fashion show/car show/DJ night/a bunch of live performers nobody cares about (shout out to Young Kain) AND crowd control? Wow. That's a lot. Plus, when your car show gets rained out and you put it on your flier, that's just laughable. And furthermore: A car show on Kern Street?!?
2. SEXY GOGO NURSES
Not just sexy gogo dancers, but sexy gogo NURSES. See, I wouldn't care if they were secretaries, teachers or flight attendants, but nurses? Yes, no I hella care. Also: Is it just me or all the pictures on here just the same six people over and over again? Also Pt. 2: You really gonna name your event after an album that's never coming out?
3. HOT MESS CENTRAL
Woah there. It looks like a box of Crayolas barfed on my monitor. And beyond that, I really got a kick out of them listing directions from both The Bay and L.A. Let me know how that works out for ya.

Is the Rainbow Ballroom font the same as the Fresno Bee font?

At least #3 lets people know that they won't be running out of anything. (ie: "fully stocked bar!")

Maybe my boobs just aren't big enough to have gotten the cool kids memo, but what does "Stuntin" mean?

I would have to vote for the last one, it's just god's brutal judgment on my eyes. I am curious to see the flier from Grown & Sexy promotional rivals, Nascent & Unattractive.

18 to party, 21 to get naughty, 25 to life for going.

Kim Burly: your boobs are plenty big! i know, i've oogled em!
Im gonna go with #2 because I'd bet that 90% of ladies in those pictures are mommies. And I'd bet that 80% of em have fake boobs that they paid for with their student loans and most likely are on welfare. And I'll take it a step further and say that most of those guys in the pictures are the daddies but dont see their kids or pay child support.
Yes I'm a b*tch, but they cant whoop me so who cares.

I love the wrong directions on #3 from both LA and BA; and what moron college student is going to come from either to an unknown (to them) club with unknown DJs for a $20 cover when there are plenty of far nicer clubs closer to them that have a cheaper cover.

I didn't think that number 1 was that bad, until I kept scrolling down. and down and down. Must be the worlds longest bad promotion poster.

I have to say that the last one takes the cake. It looks like it was made at the cherry auction (straight remate lmao).
Back to school? Really? Wouldn't that be back in like, August?
