Minnesota Man Creates GoFundMe to Make a Silly Billboard

If you have been anywhere near the Twin Cities within the past year, chances are good you've seen a billboard fro Kris Lindahl. He is a real estate agent that has a pretty aggressive advertising campaign/budget, and it's almost impossible to avoid seeing his face.

There is a Minnesota man trying to counter Lindahl's ads. He has set up a GoFundMe page asking for donations to make his own wacky billboards.

Together we will construct a billboard more dumber than any dumb billboard to ever exist before it. Why? I think we both know why.

I'm asking for your help, in any way you can, to fund it. Five bucks. A thousand dollars. Ten dollars. Anything you can to help.

Because I'm broke. And apparently 22 foot long jokes cost a lot of money.

This campaign was created on March 3rd, and as of March 20th, Derek Camitsch, the owner of the arms, has raised $945 of the $1000 he was asking for.

So what do donors get out of it? The ability to say, "Hey look, I helped fund that weird billboard". Which I guess is good enough for most people to toss in anywhere from $5 to $50.
