    I feel like digital billboards have made stuff like this less fun, if only slightly. The investment and energy required to pay for people to climb way the fuck up on a billboard and paint or glue or stretch, or whatever the fuck people actually do with “normal” billboards makes it all feel a little more delightfully unhinged.

    Due to JPEGification, I’m only about 75% sure this is a digital billboard, now that I think about it.

      It’s not cheap, but it’s not absurd to rent a billboard in a more rural area. You could probably do this for less than $2000, maybe a lot less of you know someone at the company.

        I am, however, deprived of the mental image of a crew shaking their heads in disgust that this is the dumb shit that have to put up, LOL.
