Banner Theives...SPOTTED

[1lojet1281]

anyone who has ever priced promotional banners knows that they are waaaay more then $10! the reason we dont sell our banners is because very few people would be willing to pay over $100 for a banner. and to answer the previous question, we do "try" to reuse our banners each year, if they dont all get stolen (like last year.) and FYI we did auction off two banners to benefit Relay for Life.

rape.

lol at how big of a deal the banners are, yeah it sucks but i mean come on. you guys are nuts.


i also reported everyone i saw drinking underage. Its just irresponsible to knowingly break the law. all these kids under 21 should confess now and we can call the police on them!!!!1!

[thepaintcanman]

Our Lodge was broken into and items stolen. Probably our last year for SoWo as someone tried to steal my wifes wheels last year but was spooked and her wheel fell off on the way home.

[2.ooohhh]

The fact that I actually came out and discussed this instead of staying quiet and scared should make you realize that we don't have them. If I did I wouldn't be discussing this at all and have stayed low key.

You "came out" with a fabricated story about you not being involved, and how you saw 2 random strangers outside huddle house who were actually your friends with the stolen banners. Are you honestly telling me now that you considered that the right thing to do.

great logic you have here . . . .

so when you invite people over to our house and things get stolen you should just get over it?

Whats more funny(sad) is that people are trying to justify thieves stealing stuff from a free show that is being put on for them. Not putting them up should not be the solution. These idiots realizing that just because its there does not mean its okay to take it is the solution. Obviously you all enjoy this show, otherwise you wouldnt come to it. Have some respect for the people who put this on, especially since there is no registration fee so its not like there is an abundance of cash rolling in.

BTW underage kids drinking got ticketed, not to mention it does not effect the amount of money that has to be spent again next year. If you enjoy this show being free, dont fvcking steal stuff!

next year i am taking a ghillie suit and a BB gun

[JarginT5]

There were actually multiple stores in town selling co2 bb guns.
Rifles and pistols. Even at the dollar store.

next year i am taking a ghillie suit and a BB gun

I was actually thinking painball gun, better rate of fire, bigger welts and maybe we tag their car too. I'm in nashville, lmk

[LoDub1.8T]

Hope he brings the same car to sowo next year.....maybe somthing of his will come up missing!

I sense a big bumper swap coming up for sale. someone really should keep tabs on these people and strip the fawk out of their cars... cost of doing business right?

[krazyboi]

If you're willing to steal banners, what else are you willing to rip off?

Center caps? Stuff out of open cars? who knows.

This is the reason why I kept my windows up. Even though my interior is OEM+ and would probably help me win an award, I didn't want any potential dumb@$$ ripping stuff off/out of my car as I walked around the show grounds.

I actually left my engine hood open and was hoping that no one would steal my radiator cap and oil caps.

[TONYESC76]

saw a stock black mk5 with roof rack bars, no front plate or tags so i dont know what state it was from, in front of huddle house taking down a banner in the middle of the day Sunday, I should have got a pic but i thought surely no one is that stupid to steal in the middle of the day. Guess I was wrong, It was 3 f@gs and a slut.

That is some low down dirty **** to steal from a great show, That does not even charge an entry fee, you people suck at life, please do the world a favor and kill yourself.

[BarryV]

^^^ That guy is screwed

**** man.


Edit - nevermind... It'll be hard to confuse my GTI for this guy






What a fgt. Seeing the names of his followers doesnt surprise me either. Same kind of retarded kids, trying to make themselves popular by posting ****, or doing **** that just isn't that remarkable to the more mature crowd.

She un knowingly bought one of eBay not knowing they were stolen and after people threatened to burn her house down returned them.

I was GIVEN a banner two years ago

So two years ago, someone on Ebay gave her one. Got it!

the fact that i don't even own a vw or any euro car and had to make this just cause the fact that you guys will not shut up about something so minor is pathetic. You're letting a bunch of people know about us for what? Unfortunately guys this is a lost cause. You guys are pursuing the fact that i didn't even care enough about people seeing the banners. And i would bet everything that i have that if they were presented to you like they were presented to us you would take them. Some of you are creeping my twitter constantly writing **** on instagram for what? Nothing is gonna happen and noone except for this little group of people really cares. Its a banner, QUIT CRYING. Early Monday morning there was none left except for two, and i mean NONE. Cause everyone stole them.. These were already halfway ripped off of the post from some guy who wanted to steal them previously, and we thought since the 10$ piece of junk banners are already ripped why not just take them. And idk if you guys stayed until monday but we did and all thats in helen are police officers at night. So we asked the officer and he said since they were already falling off. He said Just go and take them. So we did. I did say i cut them but i NEVER said i stole them cause clearly i had permission. Now you have people trying to so hard to get something to happen against us. And i clearly will just laugh at all of you. You know nothing and you have nothing better to do then to just cry about these banners that were already torn apart. So continue to creep on all my social networks please do it. Cause it just looks pathetic. Grow up, todays a new day. You didn't create SOWO. And I'm sure even the people that did wouldn't even care as much as you guys. And finally whoever said that if we steal banners were liable to steal from peoples cars??? Are you kidding me? That is the most irrational thing i ever heard. Kinda like saying if you smoke weed you must smoke heroin. Or if you drink you must be an alcoholic. Stop trying to win a battle when noones fighting against you. You're the only ones who cares, so stop crying.

You couldnt be more wrong sir.....just because they are silent DOSENT mean they dont care. I can assure you action will be taken. Thank you for making yourself public an making it that much easier of a process for the great crew that puts this show on for us. Now keep your non vag, fg a$$ out of our ****in shows! Your not worth having there nor should you be an you displayed perfectly why!

Why not return the 'junk' banner you took then since you regard the show and its attendees so poorly in the first place.

Your a dumba$$

[DominicACastro]

Someones Realllll Mad^ LOL It's nothing. How do you expect do get me in any sort of problem, when you have no proof of me stealing it? LMFAO. You think people are just gonna turn down someone into a show cause of what YOU believe? SORRRY. You're mad, they will see that. You know nothing. I told you the story if you don't wanna believe me. I don't care. Assume all you want. You just look like a fool. Until you find your "proof" that i stole something. Then i suggest you stop sounding like a fool. Clearly you don't know how anything works. Go back to helen and ask the police about the event. They hate it. And they wanted them banners down. He was gonna tear the already halfway torn down things away anyway and throw them away. So we just didn't wanna see them thrown away. Now you're super upset and gonna put a picture of us on here and make it seem like we are so guilty. GOODLUCK.

So your reasoning for stealing property is every did it so I did too...Hopefully lots of people in your town don't start commiting suicide so you see them doing it and take the same approach

Possession was all the proof that was needed when the Sowo organizers and VW community went after others that stole banners in the past. justsaayiinn

Wow. As someone who spent nearly all weekend with show staff/organizers, you couldn't be more wrong about literally everything in this post. Oh, the police don't hate the event, they just hate you.
