Green Bay area residents stormed Time Warner Cable’s offices late last week, but not to sign up for a new cable package or upgrade their Internet service.
Instead, they were there to grab their free green and gold “G Force” yard sign to celebrate the Green Bay Packers football team.
Initially Time Warner Cable planned to distribute 15,000 yard signs, but when they realized the demand exceeded supply, they ordered another 10,000, the bulk of which were distributed by Saturday afternoon.
The lawn sign promotion, which also prominently displayed Time Warner Cable’s logo, created minor traffic jams in communities across Wisconsin at times — the signs were handed out all over the state.
