“Dear PoPville,
What kind of agreement does Hecht have with the city to charge for street parking as if it were private?”
I did not think anything could top Wawa this week. I was wrong. I was 99% sure this was a joke but the research skills of Eat DC have proven me wrong – check this out from a Douglas Development advertising flyer. You can see Kick Axe’s website here.
“AXE THROWING?!? SOUNDS SO DANGEROUS!!
n fact, an axe is one of the safest objects to throw (besides a marshmallow… okay, and a pillow).

Safety is our number one priority!”
