The ORLANDO SENTINEL reports that more coverage of Tiger Woods isn’t always such a bad thing. The folks running the magazine racks at some Publix grocery stores in Florida have placed covers over the most recent issue of Vanity Fair magazine:
That issue features a topless shot of Tiger Woods on the cover.
Lest you think the stores are run by the Tebow family puritanicals, the Sentinel reports that a topless Men’s Fitness cover of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on the same racks are uncovered.
From the Sentinel:
Individual Publix stores decide which magazine covers merit being hidden, Publix spokesman Dwaine Stevens said. Store management can decide to cover a magazine based on the nature of the cover or if customers complain.
So will this also be applicable with cheetahs? (Sorry, flashed back to when I opened for Neil Sedaka the LV Hilton in the late ’80s.)

If you look closely at the plastic cover it looks as if Tiger is holding a golfball in his mouth.

Probably has more to do with the fact that Tiger looks like he is the cover for Prison Bitch Magazine and the Rock looks hot.

Vanity Fair is covered because it’s at a checkout end cap, cosmo is almost always covered at say wal mart or kroger just like that…muscle and fitness is likely in a magazine rack near the tangerines

Not a golfball, it’s a gag ball.

I’d expect nothing less from the Jesus Freaks and Bible Bangers in Florida.
Because God and the “Gummint” are always right in Florida.
The “Lord’s Army” never ceases to provide endless entertainment for free.

Maybe Florida can smellllllllll what the Rock is cookin’

unless I see the news rack that shows the Muscle and Fitness and the vanity fair on the same rack I call BS

The reason for this is because “The Rock” is not a hypocritical, cunning, cowardly, dishonest, immature, mentally-stunted, narcissistic, attention-craving, rabbit-toothed, bulbous-lipped idiot, like “his highness” is …

No problem, the store has the right to do that. If you don’t like it, shop somewhere else. You know what it looks like already anyway..and some of us are sick of the whole Tiger fiasco.

Yep, I’ve lived here for about 14 years and never learned it never pays to underestimate the stupidity of the majority of ‘necks in this state…Tiger is blacker than the Rock too, I’m sure he was more scary to most of these morons…
