Quick First Amendment question: I want to say that Bartnicki v. Vopper is an 
exceedingly rare case in that the Court struck down a content-neutral 
regulation, purportedly by appying intermediate scrutiny.

Can anyone point me to other high-profile examples where a content-neutral 
regulation fell?  The two that leap to my mind are Village of Stratton (door-
to-door solicitation) and City of Ladue (political signs on front yards).  Can 
folks think of other examples, say going back to the late Burger/early 
Rehnquist Courts?

Off-list responses are fine.  Thanks.
