A brilliant idea. Here’s who should advertise there (and their message):
- Handi Wipes. “Cuz’ God knows what’s been put in these bins.”
- Banks. “Bank with us. Our lines are shorter than this one.”
- Amtrak. “If you rode the train you wouldn’t need this bin [well, not yet].”
- Cialis. “By the time you get through this line, Viagra will have worn off. With Cialis, you’ll still have 34 hours to go.”
- Geico. “Got 15 minutes? Hell, you’ve got 115 minutes!”
- DeBeers. “Diamonds are forever. Which is about how long it took you to get through this line.”
- Microsoft. “Where do you want to go today? (Not that it matters — you’re not going anywhere!)”
- American Express. “Don’t leave home
without it.” - Capital One. “What’s in your wallet? (Never mind, we’re about to find out).”
- Travelex. “Did you see what the guy in front of you put in here? Travelex travel insurance kiosks — Gate 17.”
Anybody have any more suggestions?

Homeland Security: “Believe it or not, our other ideas were even worse.”
Cole Hahn: “Geez, these shoes have seen better days.”
Odor Eaters: ditto.
Maybelline – “Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe its Maybelline. Maybe its an assault weapon. ”
Energizer Batteries – “Just like us, this line keeps on going and going and going.”
Virginia Slims – “You’ve got a long way to go baby!”
Johnny Walker Red – “Keep Walking. It’s faster than flying”
or similar:
Dunkin Donuts – “America runs on Dunkin. It’s faster than flying”
and
Red Bull – “it gives you wings.”
