I finally
tracked down a story on the Metro's new ad campaign discouraging riders from eating and drinking on the Metrorail. It's a BIG picture of a rat with the words, "You gonna eat that?" The first line of the ad says, "Unlike some other subway systems (which shall remain nameless), we don't have rats the size of house cats roaming Metro." I'm sure they are talking about NYC, but of course Metro officials deny this.
Whatever...I think it's funny. The story is kinda odd -- it uses the subway ads to segue into a story about the city's losing battle against a growing Norway rat population throughout the non-subway parts of the city. But hey - at least the Metro is clean.
