Man gets city’s attention by throwing ‘birthday party’ for massive pothole

JACKSON, Miss. – Oklahoma drivers know a thing or two about potholes, but one Mississippi man got so fed up with the nuisance that he decided to get the city’s attention in a unique way.

“After 14 calls to 311, I thought it was time to do something different,” said Eddie Prosser.

Prosser says a huge pothole in the middle of his residential street has been a nightmare for drivers.

Prosser told WJTV that the pothole appeared about 16 months ago, which caused two smaller potholes to form about a year ago.

When his calls for help went unanswered, Prosser decided to throw a party.

Balloons and a big card adorned a caution sign on the pothole, reading, “Happy Birthday Pothole” and “I’ve been here for over a year.”

After the ‘party,’ WAPT reports that city crews filled the potholes.
