‘Evil Dead’ actor calls out crappy Asheville sidewalks to his Twitter followers

Actor Bruce Campbell, best known for his role in the Evil Dead movie franchise, has recently been using his social media platform to call attention to bad pedestrian and bicycle pathways in municipalities he’s visiting. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, Campbell used Twitter to point out some bad sidewalks in Asheville. Campbell has nearly half a million followers on Twitter.

Campbell made his intentions clear starting in mid-November with this tweet:

I’m starting a new thing here. It’s time to shame municipalities for lousy and/or unsafe walking and biking conditions within their jurisdiction. First up, “the blob that ate the sidewalk,” suburban Atlanta. Join me in posting your faves.

Last week, Campbell posted a handful of photos and tweets pointing to some of Asheville’s less-than-desirable sidewalk sections. Here’s one:

Campbell’s disdain for the city’s poor pedestrian infrastructure was somewhat mitigated by a beautiful sunset. Here’s what he posted on Nov. 22:

Ugly sidewalks, beautiful sunsets. Nailed it, Asheville, NC.
