SWAT Team Takes Down Puppeteer

Maybe you’ve heard that it’s actually illegal to perform a window puppet show in New York City. The punishment for a puppeteer violating this city ordinance is apparently a fine of $25 or 30 days in jail. Crazy, hun? Well, the folks at Diet Mountain Dew have made a funny ad out this little known puppetry fact that features a SWAT Team taking down a NYC puppeteer. You should take a look, it’s pretty funny.

Lots of people have been talking about this ad ever since it starting airing awhile ago, but big thanks to Tom for finding it online!
