Rejected Bruins Signs

The Boston area is renowned for its unique personality, and the poignant manner in which the natives interact with each other and outsiders.  The sports world is no exception, and the Boston Bruins have long had some of the more aggressive and entertaining advertisements.  Many of which have taken aim at a particular opponent.  

The Lightning are no exception, and the Bruins have gotten their jabs in ads offering shuffle board during the intermission to Lightning fans, and another intimating that Lightning fans simply don’t exist.  While the two ads are quite obviously counter intuitive, the real funny part is that the last time I checked I do still exist.  That means there’s at least one of us, making the whole thing a complete failure.  A failure that could’ve been avoided with a little internet research.  

But it got me thinking, what other failed signage is there?  So, I sent my DTV Investigation Team out on the call, and as it turns out, there are several rejected Bruins signs.

  1. The only one I found even slightly funny was the last one. That's just because it contained a Timmy joke and I love Timmy
