The Disruptive Thinker Transport is an innovative bus for the lucky employees & potential employees of ad agency Crispin, Porter, and Bogusky located in Gunbarrel, a pleasant little adjunct of Boulder.
I saw this bus, which looks very much like a prison bus, picking up some people from Vic's Espresso on Broadway a few times last week. I wondered what that sign emblazoned on the front of the bus: "Disruptive Thinker Transport" could possibly mean.
So I remembered over the weekend to look it up on the internet and I found out a little bit more about it. Of course....this ad agency has come up with something to get everyone who sees it thinking and wondering. That's one of the clever things a good ad agency does.
This is one of our top ad agencies nationally, according to the articles I found when I did my search. Anyway, here's a link to the article if your inquiring mind wants to know more:

And here's a small quote from the article, FYI:
"The 'Disruptive Thinker Transport,' a 25-passenger bus draped in drab gray and black lines, fake bullet holes, a nondescript company (CPB) logo and a certain dark sense of humor, is raising eyebrows across the city.
The 1999 Bluebird biodiesel-converted vehicle, which last month began making rounds to employee pickup and drop-off locations throughout the city, has led curious passers-by to call Boulder police asking what the bus is all about." read more
