    I guess it is called protection. They got tired of the sign being stolen so often.

    :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    There's one around here - not as funny as that one - "Budd Rd" (slang for weed). I used to drive by it every day on my way to work. Every couple months it would get stolen and a few weeks later they'd put up a new one. They must have finally had enough, and so they mounted a larger sign about 30-40' up a telephone pole. Well, I guess that one must have just been seen as a bigger challenge and bigger reward, cause that got stolen too! Mind you, this sign is under a street lamp, kitty-corner from a police officer's house!

    Colorado has no 420 mile markers on their highways, tired of them being stolen. I guess other states legalizing the "Gancha" will follow suit.

    Our p.o. Box # is 420, the little metal placard on the door has never been there, the postmistress said they've replaced it a number of times and it just keeps disappearing, she understood after I explained it to her.
