“Can we talk about the Children’s Bloodmobile?”


Photo by Beau Finley

“Dear PoPville,

There are a lot of (intentionally?) hilarious things going on with this bloodmobile. First, we call them bloodmobiles. That is pretty wild. Second, on this particular bloodmobile, there is a blood crossing sign. There are blood drops (or sacks) with arms and legs crossing a street. Someone came up with this idea for a sign to stick on a bloodmobile and then had the sign made.

While I am not super familiar with bloodmobiles, I wouldn’t be surprised if this sign is popular enough to appear on other bloodmobiles elsewhere. Third, the artwork: there is a drop of blood looking to escape from the trunk of the purple car, presumably driven by a child. Does the child suffer from hemophilia? Does the car? Why does the blood look happy to escape? Does blood have emotions? Then, on top of all this, the bloodmobile is sponsored by Outback Steakhouse.”
