Not the first time sci-fi has overtaken the streets of New York (last year the USPS installed some R2D2 mailboxes), Spike TV has sprinkled Star Wars ads all over town. Their most eye-catching yet involves lightsabers in a bus shelter (pictured), which amNY spotted at West 34th Street and 8th Avenue.
The question is: how long will they last in there? Even the Gap's "Picasso Wore Khakis" ads were stolen out of bus shelters (that wasn't the first time marketing inspired illegal activity), and Star Wars fans are a just a bit more fanatical than those of the Cubist movement.

I can't read "sith" and not think it says "shit".
It's ironic, actually.
Question for Star Wars geeks:
I thought only the Sith use red light sabres, so the display doesn't make sense..?
an elegant weapon for a more civilized age
(yes, dude69, red light sabres are only used by sith)
@Dude69,
Right, so Jedi should use those non-red sabers in case a Sith attacks them, get it? Like "In Case of Emergency."
Normally things like this would say, "Break in case of emergency" but you just know some degenerate in this city would throw a brick through it. Someone like those kids in the Bronx that threw a rock at my Metro North train on Easter.
Next, Ewok figures for the public bathrooms!
So can the Siths get electrocuted if they step on one of those "live" ConEd manholes??
