A former neighbor of mine had a great trespassing sign on his northern Michigan property -- "Trespassers will be violated".

Several years ago I was traveling through North Dakota on a hunting trip to Montana. In Bismarck, ND, I saw a large sign saying:

"SNOW CONES AND WORMS" A sign at a small bait shop and snow cone stand in my home town when I was a kid.

On my way to Columbus, OH we passed a road sign in Kentucky for "Big Bone Lick State Park". I couldn't talk my friend into pulling over so that I could get a picture.

How about the testicle festival in Clinton, Montana? (the Rocky Mountain Oyster variety, not something else)

 

[Joseph DeMartino]

Two signs from my home town:

A roofing company: "Above all, a good roof"

And an antiques shop: "We buy junk and sell antiques"

I once worked at a school for physically and mentally "challenged" kids. I always cringed at the unintentional humor (or cruelty) of the standard-issue traffic sign reading "Slow Children" right before our driveway.

Regards,

Joe

I was emailed a picture of a billboard that said:

"Sofa King! Our prices are Sofa King low!"

 

[Dave Poehlman]

Someone just emailed this to me... I have no idea where it is.

That one (although hosted elsewhere in your post) is one of the ones included in the Roadtrip America collection I referenced in Post #16 above.

Lots of other funny ones at the Roadtrip America site.

Thanks, Linda. I guess I should learn to read.

That site is great, BTW.

Another funny site is www.engrish.com. It's full of poorly translated signs and products.
