Brandishment – 37 is the Number
By Johnny Roosh
(It’s a Contest!)
Mrs. Roosh and I visited Manhattan last week for a quick getaway and this is my favorite photo.
How many Nationally Known Brand Names and/or Logos Appear in this photo?
If you are the closest winner Mrs. Roosh will buy you a cocktail at the AM1280 The Patriot Presidential Debate Party, Oct. 15th at Trocadero. Click the photo for the larger version required to find them all.
Hint: Many appear multiple times, each appearance counts; reflections count as well.
Congrats to BillC: I’m up to 19 individually, at least 34 including duplicates and reflections.

I’m up to 19 individually, at least 34 including duplicates and reflections.
There are a couple I can tell are SOMETHING, but the picture is just not high enough resolution to show it sharply, even zoomed into the image.
I also see an ad for perfume with a perfume bottle, not sure if you’re counting that bottle or not.
October 8th, 2008 at 9:23 am
I think I found one more, so 20 individually.
October 9th, 2008 at 1:23 am
I counted 31
October 9th, 2008 at 9:20 am
Two more days…

I missed #37 JP Morgan.
I knew #24 was perfume, but I couldn’t make out the brand
You missed:
1) Thompson Reuters (Bottom of billboard next to Hard Rock Cafe guitar)
2) Billboard above the 20 in your key, looks like Summit Brewery
3) Another Target billboard up and slightly to the left of the Walk sign on the green stoplight
4) “P” from Pioneer touching the lower left corner of the above Walk sign
I will check with the master schedule to see if I am available to show up Wed night, and will register this evening if I can.

Weren’t that fun everyone?
October 10th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
I hereby declare myself the winner.
They are ALL nationally recognized brands (and many INTERNATIONALLY recognized, thank you for my deep insight).
I’ll have a non-alcoholic beer thank you.

Ok, I’ll be there. I registered and received a page that said “PRINT THIS PAGE AND BRING TO EVENT FOR CONFIRMATION”, but there’s nothing on it with a number or anyway of confirming anything.
But I’ll be there. Sent an email to feedback addy earlier. Looking forward to meeting some of the people who I’ve been reading for 4-5 years now.

Amendment X: The operative was “how many”. Notice I didn’t count the brand name on the armored truck?
Enjoy your non-alcoholic beer. Enjoy paying for it as well. 🙂

Bill C
I look forward to meeting you and any other readers for that matter.
October 11th, 2008 at 9:44 am
Is it too late to enter? I count 37.
October 11th, 2008 at 9:52 am
Jeff, I’d buy you a drink either way.
