Thanks for the support Rell. Also to this point, having the message literally circling University of Miami and being smack in front of the Hecht is priceless. Most of the people complaining probably didn't put any money in and def no work (and in the face of repeated set backs outside my control), haters gonna hate.

It will catch a very small number of people’s attention. Think about when you’re driving around. Just mentally play it out. It’s impossible for this to even have a small fractional percent of the eyeballs that a standing billboard would have.You can count on your hand the number of people that will actually see this per day.
 
Better than any billboard,for poster saying double dipping .guys smart killed two birds with stone.delivered you a **** sandwich while driving that around town.

Since this is a recurring point, let's be clear the bolded is totally false. Have you ever been on US1? How about US1 during rush hour? Plenty of people are gonna be sitting in their car reading it.

Secondly, while the absolute number of eye balls is certainly still less than a big stationary billboard, that's effectively exchanged for being able to take this all around campus, US1, Miami-Dade county, etc. Seriously, if people have a place they want this to pass through they can tell me. I also think the variety of spottings in various places is even better for the social media impact. As evident by the fact that random accounts were posting pictures to twitter from the moment it started driving around today.

Thirdly, getting the stationary billboard in any remotely timely manner was made impossible by direct interference from the Hecht. Y'all are acting like this was a choice, and that two seperate billboard companies didn't shoot this down at the 11th hour. My only options were to 1. hold on to the money even longer, and everyone would flip. Or 2. just call it quits and reward the Hecht for their pathetic efforts. Instead I went with 3. Drop the message right in front of the Hecht and wherever else we please.

It's not perfect, but it's the best I've been able to do pretty much on my own with the free time I have. And it's still **** good, IMO.

OP went for his. Despite his profit, it's more than 98% of these posters will ever do for UM.

Do some research. You’ve been had.

I originally promised a fixed billboard on US1, and later one by the airport. As chronicled in multiple threads each and every single one hit roadblocks that were confirmed to have come from upper level contact with UM and/or BOT management. That's correct, some admin clowns have been tracking the campaign and doing everything in their power to sabotage the message from getting out there. Given that fact, throwing this up as promised within a reasonable time span was not possible. The timing was already impacted hugely, so I opted for speed over anything else. Despite Manny once again winning the off season, Blake James is a fraud and cannot be allowed to stick around if/when further coaching changes needs to be made. Should Manny fail this season yet again then it's confirmed he's all hype and no substance, but of course BJ won't see it that way.

This mobile billboard will run back and forth all over US1, all around the UM campus (including in front of the Hecht), and all over Coral Gables for OVER TWO WEEKS, 8 HOURS A DAY. The morning it was produced and mounted there's already multiple pictures up on twitter without me lifting a finger or having taken one myself.

To all my backers, thank you. All donated money has been spent in full to achieve this thing running for a whole 16 days. Thank you all.

Man, I always pay attention to those joints, bro. Can't tell you how many restaurants or movies I've been to b/c of those mobile billboards. lol. Hate to admit it, but it's easier on the eyes. Why do you think commercial vehicles have their business logos on it?

I'm glad the billboard truck company is out of the reach of the infinitely powerful UM athletic department.

UM mistakenly allocated resources to strong-arming the bums who spin signs in front of vape shops and budget cellular service providers. 305 Sepsis pulled an end around on them and snagged Hector the lawn guy and put a clipboard in the bed of his pickup truck. Sepsis for the win!
