Yes, the company offering famously lousy service had just launched an ad campaign with the line “There’s a reason you’ve never heard of ‘bus rage’” when, on a trip from Alberta to Winnipeg, one of its passengers was apparently beheaded and eaten. Suffice to say, they’re doing away with the campaign. I still like Jay Leno’s suggestion for a Greyhound slogan, and it’s as relevant as ever: The Drifter’s Choice.
