I saw this blurb from Ripley’s, the “Believe It or Not” people, and went, “Now just WAIT A COTTON PICKIN’ MOMENT…”
How could they give them away if they were banned?
Was Ripley’s punished for violating this ban? https://t.co/xHZJSgQVPU— Frog Capital (@FrogNews) March 11, 2024
It wasn’t so much the fact that Ripley’s was giving away books banned in Florida to Florida residents, so how could they be banned to begin with. No, it was where this supposed ban took place – Escambia County.
Well, hello – that’s where I live. Do I have to check the garage for my ancient copies of Ripley’s now (If they start going after the Guinness Record yearbooks, I’m toast)?
The demand for the banned Ripley’s Believe It or Not books has surprised and delighted the entertainment company.
So far, about 17,500 Floridians requested a copy of a book after Ripley’s announced it was giving them away for free…
