Ad Agency's Bizarre Steve Jobs Tribute Flash Mob Hits Seattle

Posted by timothy on from the suspect-he's-laughing dept.

The Filter digital agency decided to show off their Steve Jobs spirit on the first anniversary of Jobs' death by declaring Friday Steve Jobs dress-up day. But where things really took a turn for the worse was in Seattle, where Filter employees took it to the local Apple Store where they formed a Flash Mob of Steve Jobs dress-alikes dancing Gangnam Style. Hey, even our best of intentions sometimes go awry."

    It was a pretty lousy flashmob, badly choreographed, and not really that funny, but I wouldn't say anything went awry. TFS makes it sound like someone got clocked in the face by a startled bystander or knocked over a table full of expensive laptops.
