When A Pothole Got Ignored For Years Its Neighbors Decide To Give It A Birthday Party

The Russian way of dealing with potholes.

1.
The pothole was there since 2013.
2.
It was "fixed" by pouring asphalt in it when it was full of water. Big surprise it never worked.
3.
One man decided "if the pothole won't go away we must embrace it".
4.
The celebration not only brought attention to the bad state of roads...
5.
... it made others do the same with their "friendly neighborhood potholes".
6.
7.
This time it was a well organized event.
8.
9.
There were members of the press.
10.
11.
12.
What do you think, is this a good way to fight laziness? Is this shaming or making your point? The people who have to fill the potholes now under public pressure aren't exactly happy about this.
