Well would take a guess the object and author of the signage prob got purty poor eyesight. Hopefully he will give up the bad habit afore full blown blindness takes over.
There is a hole in the wall hot dog stand near me (Reed's) dirt floor and all. Best damn dogs in the world. They use beef tallow in the fryer too. Don't discard those old beat up places. May be the best chow you ever had.
