- Snowspot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+60Just because of this, next time I go to Amsterdam I'm peeing all over the place.
- Khlept0, on 10/12/2007, -3/+48I can confirm this as I've seen them myself on my way to Iraq.
Amsterdam was a great stop, I must say. - aurrea, on 10/12/2007, -2/+38Brilliant but not new. Qualcomm Stadium (Chargers Stadium) has flies but also rival team names i.e. Raiders, Broncos etc.
- 98acura, on 10/12/2007, -22/+51dubya would be more popular than osama.. id piss all over him.. I would start drinking more water, just so I could piss on his face that much more..
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21Filthy capitalists. Etching steals the job of the guy who places a new fly after every flush.
- Zzyw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20No, this is a good idea. THIS is a brilliant idea: http://www.wayodd.com/urinal-shaped-like-a-mouth-sparks-complaints/v/3419/
- Klarth, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19New York's JFK has these.
Digg needs more urinal-related tourism articles. - MattL920, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11I once saw a urinal with an advertisement on the wall in front of it for the Scarface video game. When you stood in front of the urinal, the ad said "Say hello to my little friend"

- unicornhunter, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6You can also have pets at that airport and smoke inside. It's like the America we all dream of.

Look at those in Vienna: http://taz.de/blogs/wienblog/2006/10/16/orte-demonstrativer-frauenverachtung/
They were removed because some women's organization was offended by them. - AriaStar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5If it takes an etched fly to get a man to actually aim properly...
- moosebumps, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I know this will not be believed, but here goes:
During my college years, when I was at the peak of my peeing precision, I took a flying fly down with a well aimed pee blast. I felt quite accomplished and belted out a gloriously while I reveled in my feat and finished my pee. I wanted to share the news with the roomies, but the look on their faces told me that they mistook my glory yell as a fit of something more serious that would make you scream while you pee. Unlike the fly, my parade couldn't be rained on. - Starship, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4http://www.smart.com.ua/wp-content/uploads/2006/04/soccer_urinal.jpg
- aizlewood, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Loads of places in Amsterdam have these types of urinals check out http://www.urinalfly.com/ if you want to buy one.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4You could always put a picture of Bush in the urinal, then correct aim would reach 100%.
- falstaff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3http://www.urinal.net/schiphol/
Yes, the url looks "dirty," but it's sfw. That's where the image in the linked story comes from. - ffttoteof, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3What's even better is some urinals in Germany have a little soccer goal in them, with a tiny soccer ball in it. The soccer ball is normally red, but the more you urinate on it, it begins to turn white. (After a few minutes, it turns red again. Some kind of chemical reaction.) I've been particularly pleased with myself the times I could turn the ball completely white.
- blackjack75, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3In Amsterdam some urinals have real flying dragons inside.
At least this is what some people reported after a few days in the coffee shops. - joshuacw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Old hat. The flies have been around forever. -- The best, though, were the soccer goals that were in the urinals during the World Cup.
- portis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2A lot of urinals around the world has flies stuck on them so you can "shoot" them. This ain't exactly new or news for that matter. Some others have bullseye, etc...
- russellnation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2that is a really good idea but what if the guy next to me has a fly on his leg?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2nice . .but we (the dutch) already have this for more then a decade
- unruled, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2oh, haha, I thought this was normal?
Its not just amsterdam airport, but lots of urinals in the country have em... - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6I dream of not getting involuntary respiratory disease from second-hand smoke.
Remember, kids. Personal liberty only applies to cases where no one around you gets hurt. - baranovich, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5These have been around for quite some time.
I've heard about them in bars, but I'm not sure how much good they do there. - wheezy360, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I'd aim away to save the poor fly. Counterproductive.
- johnburk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This has been around for over 20 years! They exist in different variation.
- leatherscot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2LOL! Not only in Holland - in most of europe - and a lot of the US - guess you dont travel much
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3where is that from haha
- leatherscot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They are in IBM Netherlands! Also in some IBM Uk offices
- Takfam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2So... if they were to etch a fly on the toilet seat... what then? I'm not saying they would (can you imagine the clean up?!) but guys, would you try and go for a quick burst and take a shot at it if it were there?
I think they're missing out on an opportunity here. I wish I were an engineer. Pay a quarter to pee, hit a bullseye in the urinal, get your quarter back. Miss the target, you'll miss that quarter when you leave. - mostman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Window Treatment
- foolfromhell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Cheney would shoot you back.
- bigsammer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I wish they had this where I work (IBM). I swear more piss ends up on the floor here than down the drain.
- Pay_, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2It's not new. Probably around sinds caveman, but i've never digged a bugged toilets before.
I read a sign over a uninal once that read "Your visit was made possible by Heineken".
It was right. - Gatesophile, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1:( We women never get to have any fun...
- Flipsen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My school (in downtown Amsterdam) has had this for the past 5 years.
- Ghstfce, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1But sadly, frogs are prone to trying to eat them.
- MadEnvoy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1For some reason I read "Flies" as "Files", bah, gotta quit digging at work.
- fishgeekva, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1When I see Bowl and Amsterdam in the same sentence something else comes to mind.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1A bathroom at Purdue has one (except with a Bee) on some sort of weirdo urinal that doesn't flush. Oddly it sits in a remote restroom that nobody uses.
- Exploited, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Aiming at a fly etched in the toilet isn't as fun as shooting down the real thing...:/
- michaelb1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Girls can't aim.
- f8tal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is nothing new for me. I also life in the Netherlands and my school, TU Delft, also has those flies etched in the toilets.
- reevolutn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1you are but a shell of a man, man
