I'm from New York City and I'm confused as to why one of our ads is in Chicago???
I can only assume you guys want more gentle midwestern tourists :D And/or more gun violence, because weāre pretty good at that.Ā

My response upon seeing this every time was "how are they original, they are called NEW York for crying out loud!". *Cue people at bus stop turning their heads and staring at me*
LOL! I do think the cops who were sitting in their car next to the ad were confused that I stopped to snap a picture of it.
I think the Famous Original thing is meant to reference the Famous Rayās/Original Rayās rivalry but the font doesnāt really fit either of their logos...and in fact just reminds me of the Haroldās Chicken Shack font.Ā

I'm baffled by what the 'W' is supposed to convey? It looks to me like crossing vehicle headlight beams, but...that's not super New Yorky, unless you count cabs, in which it should, idk, be yellow with a black-checked stripe? I'm so confused. And angry on your behalf that somebody thought Chicago would be okay with this.
I thought it was a dude yelling, like New York IS kind of famous for dudes just yelling randomly.Ā

FWIW, Iām not from Chicago but Iām in the city visiting for the first time, and I was also appalled to see that as yesterday.
Have you seen the more baffling but less appalling ads for Lexington, KY in Chicago yet? Iām still confused about those, but at least we donāt have a notorious rivalry with Lexington.Ā
