MBUSA photo shoot

This morning from 3 to 7am, RT 93 north over the Zakim Bridge in Boston was closed down for MB to film a commercial and do a photoshoot for a new high end Sedan. They wanted to do it during sunrise around 6:18 but the weather sucked so they will be doing it again tomorrow morning. Someday I hope to have enough cash to be able to pay to close an ENTIRE Interstate Highway for a few hours. hahahahaa

For anyone not familiar with the bridge:

Boylston, I ripped those images from Google. I WISH I had skills like that. The set is/was closed to the public. They had police cars blocking all access to the area.

vcuiser, the guy who showed me what was going on only said that it was a "125, 000 dollar Benz". He had no clue what he was talking about. I may try and get closer tonight.

Either way, being from Mass, I cant wait to see the pix somewhere and be able to relate. Pretty cool.
