Listen to the three PSA's now:
Forest Whitaker
Casey Affleck
Kevin Nealon
Casey Affleck's testimonial on why he's a vegetarian would be the perfect way to increase revenue for the MTA! I know I'd like to hear the voice of a sexy vegetarian like Casey on my morning commute. And hey, it might even encourage them to do something about the speaker quality while they're at it. Can anyone actually understand what they're saying?
Side note: Research shows that vegetarians actually have stronger immune systems than meat eaters, which is always a plus when you're smushed into a little subway car with a hundred coughing strangers. Hopefully, the MTA will consider our offer, for the sake of animals, commuters, and the $2 MetroCard.

I LOVE THAT! Maybe also try to advertise in the back of the metrocards.It will grab attention. Not all trains have the ads in the loud speakers, usually the advanced ones like the 2 train.
Please consider to have ads in the metrocards where more people will see it.

I live in New York City, and whenever I take the subway, I post PETA's "Animals in Laboratories" stickers on all of the poles in the stations, and on the doors inside the train. (I also leave PETA's excellent "Take a Closer Look at Fish" leaflets on all the seats.) The stickers get taken down much faster than they do in other cities, but if you're taking the train you might as well put them up.
SO, for those of you in New York, try putting PETA's "Animals in Laboratories" stickers (the best small stickers, in my opinion) on the poles in your station, and together with mine they'll be even more noticeable around the city!
The best versions of these stickers are on PETA's experimentation sticker sheet - click my name for the link!
See you on the trains,
Mark

This is a great idea. Now I don't live in New York City but heck yeah. I think it would even work great in more rural areas where people think PETA is short for Peter.
