Why do I get the feeling Lucero Guerrero received this story ready made from the band's publicist?

It used to be fun to modify street signs. In the 80s, on occasion, I'd add a big red nose to a "Deer Crossing" sign, or change a "No Dumping Allowed Sign" to read "No Humping Allowed", and sometimes the "Deer Crossing" Sign would be modified so a Doe was added right underneath the leaping Buck etc...

Todays kids think they are starting new trends. Yawn.

Here in Kalistan we just put red noses on the deer crossing signs.

(BTW Did anyone notice that the antlers are backwards???)

City officials say they aren't sure what the signs mean, but fans of a Colorado music group may have some idea. Internet blogs and chat rooms that have noticed the signs point to the fans of String Cheese Incident as the main culprit.

I hope you don't mind if I copy your idea. It's pretty funny!

I have to confess I chuckle every time I see the little sign on vending machines that shows a vending machine falling on a stick figure.
