Stingray Sushi restaurant, Arizona gets warning from Phoenix Public Transportation Department (PPTD) since their ads image are considered against the law.
The ads image showed ‘Suzi Stringray’, the mascot of the restaurant aiming two guns and using mini clothes. It is claimed that the ads that exposing violence even vulgar content, so PPDT suggest them to change into a better polite picture.
Bryan Chittenden, the co-owner of Stingray Sushi, said he and his staffs did not expect their ads would be that controversial. He claimed that the restaurant didn’t get any serious complaint about the ads from the customer and other people. Bryan even thought that PPDT’s decision looks weird, since PPDT is okay with other ads that displaying violence and shooting scenes on their ads.
