The “Adolf” Pub

By Alex in Travel on Nov 10, 2007 at 2:24 pm

UK pub chain JD Wetherspoon opened a new pub named The John Masefield after the poet laureate, but may have to ditch its logo because it looks too much like Adolf Hitler!

They based their sign on a picture of Masefield, who died in 1967 at 88, when he had a "toothbrush" moustache like Hitler’s. [...]

Newsagent Keith Buckley, 25, said: "Everyone’s already calling the pub The Adolf."

    Yep, I can see the problem it another Mo Feud. Mo’s they are trouble and Movember has just made it worse. Fancy having a month dedicated to growing a Mo for Mens Health.

    Actually I wonder how many Mo Bros are growing the toothbrush MO. If they were more common then the how Adolf thing would be diluted.
