BMW dealer's billboard scaring motorists into 911 calls

Bridgeport BMW in Bridgeport, Connecticut decided to go with an
outside-the-box kind of billboard to advertise it take home test drive
program. Perched on top of the big billboard is a man and a big teddy
bear. Of course, if you take a close look you'll see it's a mannequin
and a big teddy bear. This fact did not stop passing motorists from
calling 911 concerned that either the man or his bear would fall off
the top of the billboard, or that they would jump. No really, they were
concerned about the teddy bear, too.
