Texas needs your help. Don't Mess with Texas has been nominated as one of the best slogans of all time. The slogan is nominated right alongside Nike's "Just Do It" and Wheaties' "The Breakfast of Champions" in the Advertising Week's Madison Avenue Walk of Fame.

Winners are selected American Idol style with online voting. It looks to me that Yahoo and USA Today are sponsoring the voting with Advertising Week.

The wonderful people who promote the Lone Star State want to get as many Texans (and Texas lovers) to vote as possible.

Here's how you can help.

1. Most important, go to

http://www.votedmwt.com

and vote for Don't Mess with Texas. One vote per computer, so you can vote at work and at home (edited to add: as long as you haven't cleared cookies -- after that you can return again if you like)

2. Forward the http://www.votedmwt.com link today to all your friends, family and coworkers and ask them to vote for Don't Mess with Texas. Voting closes in September.

THANKS! And all y'all have FUN out there today, ya hear?

Why wouldn't we mess with Texas? It's jut a bunch of rednecks and illegal immigrants. What are they gonna do, pick all our fruit and force us to watch NASCAR? They've already done that.
 
Hell, I'm from Texas and I don't even like the slogan. It's not creative, it's not clever and Texas isn't all that great.

Soon they'll be their own socio-demographic sub group and we'll have to call them Texan-Americans or as the rest of us call them, Mexicans.
 
Late night last night? You guys are a bit grouchy for so early. Here. Have a hot biscuit....with some butter and raw honey. That will make you feel better.

And thanks for bumping the thread. I appreciate that.

Ok, I'll lighten up since there isn't much better than a hot biscuit with honey.
 
I'll go and vote. I love the Texan accents of the people I talk with on lit.

You guys are all pretty cool. I think to live in hell you have to have a great outlook on things. Tough people, and your all hospitable.
 
Good boy. Now clear your cookies and do it AGAIN! hahahahahahahahaha

It was actually originally an anti-litter campaign, and it included various celebrities and musicians from the state. Stevie Ray Vaughan, for example, did a TV spot for it.

So if you think of it in the original context, it was very creative and mostly, effective.

Isn't that how marketing slogans should be measured after all?

Thanks for pointing that out. I think the saying has been used too much in other instances that the original meaning has been forgotten.

Do you really think it's a good slogan?

I think that it feeds into a negative stereotype of Texans as arrogant, self centered and belligerant.
Why would you want to present such a false-

Oh, hi, DT.

Like Slider said, it was a slogan for an anti-litter campaign. But now it has been used in so many other ways that yes some non-Texans will look at it as arrogant.
