Michigan teens busted for playing X-rated video on roadside electronic billboard
The Washington Times ^ | Saturday, January 11, 2020 | Andrew Blake

Two teenagers have been held accountable for causing a pornographic video to be displayed on an electronic billboard located alongside a highway in Michigan, police said Friday.

Authorities in Auburn Hills said that a 16-year-old from South Lyon and an 18-year-old from Sterling Heights admitted their involvement in an X-rated stunt that stunned drivers.

The incident unfolded on the evening of September 28, 2019, when police received multiple calls from motorists about porn being played on a billboard alongside Interstate 75.

Authorities shared video footage soon afterward that showed two suspects entering a roadside shed beneath the billboard that contained a computer from where it could be controlled.

Auburn Police Department Lt. Ryan Gagnon said that authorities subsequently received anonymous tips that resulted in successfully identifying both suspects, local media reported.

“Both were interviewed and admitted responsibility,” Lt. Gagnon said Friday, The Macomb Daily newspaper reported.

The teens entered the shed through an unlocked door and spent around 15 minutes inside, The Detroit Free Press reported. Once started, the pornographic video played on the billboard for around 15 to 20 minutes before being stopped.

“That is unclear how exactly they thought about this or why they chose this, other than you can obviously see a shed underneath the sign and maybe curiosity piqued their interest whether or not they could get in, maybe that ran the billboard,” Lt. Gagnon added, according to The Detroit Free Press. “You look at any other billboard and there is no shed underneath it.”

The two teens were returned to the eighties movie from which they came.

Bet is awkward you and your buddies all in the same vehicle. :)

Where I grew up there was a XXX drive in. People could sit out on the loop around the city and watch.
No audio but we are talking XXX porn.

Not that I heard about while in HS or participated in any way.

No accidents, but it did cause a drive-in theater to form.

Well, there aren’t very many good drive-in theaters left in Michigan.

Might laugh at the bar or the office, but they still get fitting punishment.

This is one of those where laughing on the scene probably isn’t good for the kids, lest they get the idea that they can get away with too many stunts as an adult.

Years later they can be regarded as legends and or be humiliated with the story being brought up at embarrassing times, but kids still do need to know that there are limits.

16 yo hacking into a system. We have got to start taking internet security seriously.

I think this is funny but very, very scary.

Many years ago there was a twin screen drive-in theater on the 610 South Loop in Houston. Hard core wasn’t shown but R rated movies were. The sight of 50 foot nipples caused a lot of Loop 610 traffic problems. King Center Drive-In RIP.

Seriously??? I give the kids an 8 out of 10 for their classic teenage prank. I would have given them a 10 if the video had lasted at least an hour.......Oh well, better luck next time........LOL!

There was no hacking involved. Only negligence. The shed was unlocked and there was no password on the computer.

Hmmm... If those motorists had been using Waze, they might have received a warning and an alternate route to avoid the video... /s

I'd hate to speculate on what Waze would use for the warning picture/icon...
