I received the same: Perhaps if enough of us complain - we'll make some progress....and a nicer drive for those of us who have kids.

So I called Sheetz at their 800 number and spoke with a lovely rep named Cindy. She quickly informed me that the sign will be removed by March 5th and a new more appropriate one will take it's place.

Job well done folks! See what can happen when we all join together!

Hmm if it worked for a sign at, ahem,"SHEETZ", we should try to get them to change those other signs, you know the ones in front of all the gas stations that makes everybody sick when they pull in. Im calling Exxon right now.

She also thanked me for helping to generate interest in Sheetz and their advertising by posting comments on open internet boards. She concluded by saying "You can't buy advertising like you dummies provide us for free."

Job well done? They're leaving the sign up until they want to take it down.

Gotta love America. or at least what it used to be
It's not like the sign says "Buy some of our f***ing chicken."

If someone is going to whine and complain about that, then why don't they write letters to every single TV station about every single show because there is always something "immoral" with things on every show in television.

Writing a letter really won't do any difference because they really don't give a ****. They're not going to take down a whole AD campaign just because of that. Now, if thousands of people complained, they probably would do something about it. Either way, if you're going to tell people not to buy from them because they said "frickin," it's probably not going to make them not go there.

Sheetz must be the anti-christ!!


EDIT.
P.S. To all of you giving this "bad karma" stuff, thank you. If calling me an asshat makes you feel better as a parent, than more power to you. Keep it comin'!
