I thought "Checkmate" was quite clever.

What if you did not see the other billboard? I'm sure 90% of the people that pass by these signs never notice the correlation. The camera angle and the powerful zoom lens the photo was taken with make it seem like the billboards are next to each other when in fact they are separated by some distance. Now the Audi billboard makes no sense to most people. Most are probably asking WTF? Nice sign pollution from both parties.

If checkmate was so bad than how come we are still talking about it? Its been days and its still a buzz everywhere. BMW did a great job with the checkmate add and they deserve props for that. If someone says they should be fired or whatever sorry you have no idea what your talking about.
