Yahoo! Revolutionizes Local Bus Shelters, Promises A Block Party With OK Go
Have you seen those crazy new touch screen Yahoo ads at bus stops lately? They're actually games that pit SF neighborhood against neighborhood and until January 26th, when they disappear, you basically won't have a chance to get bored waiting for Muni again. But that's not all--the winning neighborhood wins a block party with indie band OK Go!
The Yahoo Bus Stop Derby is the first of its kind anywhere. Mainly downtown but at 20 bus shelters in all, there are four games, like "Chatter Scatter" and "Incoming!" which can be one- or two-player. I've seen kids battling it out with their friends, and old people staring at the games in complete awe. Check out this video to see what it's all about:
The bus stops seem to be in downtown SF mainly, there's a map on busstopderby.com
