UK park cracks down on body odor



bo-sign

A UK theme park as declared war on a serious problem in sunny and hot England…..body odor.

Starting last week, Thorpe Park in Surrey is banning visitors from their rides if they lift their arms, sharing their favorite body smells with those around them.

The problem, surprisingly for England, is the heat (the introduction was meant to be sarcastic though.) Temperatures in the area are expected to hit a whopping 29C (84F) next week, and the locals start to smell when the temperature hits 25C (77F).

“It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster summer in regards to the weather but we have found that when the temperature gauge tops 25°C the level of unpleasant smells can become unacceptable and we do receive complaints” a park spokesman told the Surrey Herald. “Coupled with the fact that our rides are really scary and people sweat more than normal due to the fear and anticipate they experience whilst queuing up, it can get really pongy.”

To get the message across, the park has also installed charming signs like the one above.
