A Straight White Guy Festival coming soon in Ohio?

In a gay-ish neighborhood in Ohio, there are posters advertising a Straight White Guy Festival.

As you can see below, it's a mess, but it's drawing a lot of attention.

Here's more:

The poorly-spelled flyers invite people to "come and help us celabrate [sic] our enjoyment of being straight, white and male" at Goodale Park in Clintonville, Columbus, on September 20.

They say everyone is welcome and beer will be available, but drugs are banned.

The event has been taken by some as a homophobic backlash against the gay pride festival held at the park last month.

But others believe it is a hoax. Officials say they have not received any requests for permits to hold the event, casting doubt on its credibility.

Hoax or not, folks need to be aware o this. Who knows what this really is.
