There is a trucking company called “Route 66” and for some reason their mascot is a camel with a “66” on the hump. Their slogan? Humping to Please ---

> [@Big Bad Voodoo Lou](#): > > I’ve been there, hung out there! I caught a jazz combo led by drummer Jason Marsalis (of the famous jazz family) there, and saw Dave Pirner, the lead singer of the band Soul Asylum, just hanging out at the bar, drinking with friends. Cool little club, although I haven’t been there since 1998. That’s right around the time my friend worked there. He tells a funny story about how they were closing one night. Everybody was dead-dog tired. Just as they were locking the doors, who should show up but Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, with an entourage of groupies and a truckload of disposable cash. “Sorry guys”, said the employees. “We’re just way too tired to party with you.” Ah, the Marsalis brothers. I used to know two of them. And jammed with one once (Branford). ---

There’s a car dealer in town named Jack Schmidt. When he first opened up I kept expecting to say something like “If you don’t know where to get the best deal on a new car, then you don’t know Jack Schmidt!” It took 10 years, but he finally started doing it. ---

Though I can’t be certain of the truth of this claim, there was apparently a septic tank installation company (or some such thing) in my home town, and their slogan was “Your crap is our bread and butter”. Also, there’s a shop in Melbourne that sells compasses, and their slogan is “Get one or get lost!” ~ Isaac ---

There’s always the good ol’ laundry one: _DROP YOUR PANTS HERE_. Another was a (sadly now closed) cleaning supplies shop next door to a religious supplies one, of course being : _cleanliness is next to godliness_. Not sure if it counts, as they are visual, but a local fashion boutique at Sydney’s Bondi Beach (when I was living there in the 80s) filled their window with old metal springs and announced their “Spring Collection”. The same mob dismembered a mannequin, added some red paint, and had _“A NASTY FALL”_. ---

This isn’t really a sogan, but there’s a bar/restaurant supply store I walked past in Philadelphia that had, in huge letters on the side of the building: “The Stool Store” I wanted to go get a sample for the next time the vet needed one from the cats. ---

My favorite is fictional, coming from the otherwise excruciatingly awful gangster movie _Once Upon A Time In America._ James Woods has a mortuary that’s a mob front, and painted on his panel truck is the slogan: **"Why Go On Living When We Can Bury You For $59.95?"** ---

> [@Eve](#): > > Oh, I just remembered a butcher store in Brooklyn with the slogan, “You Can’t Beat Our Meat!” That slogan is also used by the [gayest beer & burger joint in Canada](http://www.hamburgermarys.ca/main.html). (Which is _the_ place to be on a Sunday night. Woot!) There’s also Modrobes, (an apparel chain,) the Vancouver outlet of which used to have a sign out front that said “I WANT YOU IN MY PANTS.” That’s a good’n.
