Title: Godmobile still rolling...
Post by: mu_hilltopper on July 28, 2009, 02:41:04 PM
Saw the Godmobile down at the lakefront this weekend .. snapped a few pics.

Man, this guy is certifiable. 

I wonder if he goes to the grocery store in that heap?  Or when he goes to Sunday church services .. job interviews ..

And it looks like this is Godmobile v2.0.  I wonder how much he got for a trade-in on the first station wagon?

My favorite is still the guy that had his own PA system parked in front of McCormick but the last I saw him was during my freshman year in 2002.

My favorite bumper stickers include:

Sex kills love.

Drunks kill life.

I'm trying to save my little 1's from your demons.

When I went to school it was the "Jesus mobile." I wonder when it made the subtle transition.

From the Wiki/article...

On top of his wrinkled face sits a green hat with “God's Minute Man” written on it. Ron wears a wall clock around his neck over his camouflage coat and carries two tattered books, one resembling a Bible.

Flav?  That you?

I have a picture of what I believe is the 1.0 version.  I'll check when I get home.

Anyone know what was up with the giant plush Tazmanian Devil he had on it for awhile?  I always thought it took away from the message he was spreading haha.

Is that the original car...I thought the one in the late '80s was black.

I wonder if that car qualifies for the "Cash for Clunkers" program.

I wonder if people like this and those that preach at schools (we had one guy at UWP that would come for a week in the fall and week in the spring and just yell at us as we walked into our Student Center that we were going to hell), I wonder if these people realize THEY are the ones that so many teennagers and college students are turned off by the idea of religion.  Things like this, the people that stand outside of Summerfest with giant signs saying the things that will get you "burning in hell", preachers at colleges that wouldn't explain the word of God for good, instead use it to attack students as they pass by, all of these people are one in the same and kill the idea of religion for so many 18-25 year olds

What?  No way. 

I mean, I saw that car and all those messages and I started to repent right away.  You didn't???

Jesus, I posted that photo so that all of you MUScoop sinners would repent after seeing it.

"U HATE GOD THAT'S WHY U EVIL WICKED!"

I was standing out in front of the Hilton on Friday, and the Godmobile went cruising by. I snapped a picture and just laughed. Some things never change in Milwaukee.

I think he improved his sound system since I graduated.

Yes, the original (at least  - the original one I remember) was black - see the wiki page - it has a pic of Godmobile 1.0...
