On a stockcar I once put my name (free sponsorship! HAH!) upside down and wrote "don't call us we'll call you!".... the kid had the nerve to question my work on "his car" mom and dad paid for it and I spent 2 days free handing it for $75 bucks and a so called right to advertise!.... following that I dramatically changed my policy for working on race cars!

A few years back we did a backlit fascia sign for a business called Giraffe Beverages. They make the concentrate for cocktail ingredients like grenedine. They also have a definitely male giraffe for a logo. The tagline on the sign is "you can't beat our high balls".

Hey, I was in the meat biz for a long time, we always kidded about the "meat beating" line and also included something about not being able to lick our hotdogs... but we did not say hotdog.
Then there's the excavation guy around here who had his back-hoe painted all black... the arm of the hoe is lettered "Little Black Hoe" and no, I did not do it.
