Hell yeah... bumper sticker, billboard, or some such Wall Drug advertisement. Those "xxx miles to Wall Drug" signs must start 500 miles out!

Glasses or bandana on seat works, I suppose.

And here I thought it would be hard like getting a pic of a submarine or something.

Nope. People put Wall Drug stuff all over the planet. That example pic I posted was in the Netherlands.

Never heard of wall drug. We have cvs, Walgreens and stuff but no wall. I should have looked earlier. There's a red caboose less than 5 miles from the toilet I'm sitting on lol

Wall is an itty bitty own in South Dakota about an hour drive east of Rapid City. The founders camped out there and started offering free ice water and various sundries and the legend begins.

... see? In Rhode Island (assuming you're around home).

Common decor on Winnebagos in WalMart (or similar) parking lots.

Here's another one from Belize, but I don't recommend trying to get a pic of YOUR bike next to it...

It's kind of an interesting story, actually. Their website details the history and gives an overview of what the place has grown into. Cult following, yeah, probably accurate.

As a kid, I remember seeing billboard after billboard for hundreds of miles, and have run into bumper stickers or other stuff like I have posted as examples all over the world.

Bizarre, but harmless.

That's to funny, I'll have to keep an eye out and see if I can't find a sign out here on the left coast.
