Sandwich Board Ban

Sandwich Board Ban

It has been a British tradition for decades -- taking to the streets with a message or advertisement strapped to your chest. But to some, the sandwich board set has become a nuisance to pedestrians.

Ban Board Sandwich

I can't see the problem with it personally. The only thing that I can put it down to is that people these days generally seem to be on a tighter timescale, and I'm guessing that the complaints have come from people feeling that the people with the sandwich boards are in their way.
It's a mad world out there! Pretty petty if you ask me, and the next thing you'll see banned associated with this is people with religious boards. (in my opinion.)

Sandwich Board Ban History & Civil Business Politics

I kinda like seeing a person walking about with a sandwich board or dressed in a costume to help drum up business for their joint. TO outlaw this is very petty. I guess the ME ME ME attitude that most seem to have can not be bothered to side step a ad. What is next? Maybe the trash cans need to go and the post boxes because they are in the way too.
