Hmmm.... I gotta think this one out - too many perfect signs around here, and I'm sure others have signs that will make for a perfect setup - this could turn out to be one of the toughest contests yet...

So i already know of the perfect sign but its a good hour away :(

What is an hour in our cars? I drive that just to get to work every day...

Pick a nice day and just go "sight seeing".

Probably something along these lines:

From Wikipedia about Archie Manning.


Manning was the starting quarterback at Ole Miss for three years. In the first national prime time broadcast of a college football game (1969), Manning threw for 436 yards and three touchdowns, also rushing for 104 yards, in a 33-32 loss to Alabama. That 540-yard performance is still tied for the SEC record for most total yards in a game.[1]
But despite Manning's considerable talent, the rest of the team was not at his level, and the Rebels only had a record of 15-7 in his last two years. In his college career, he threw for 4,753 yards and 56 touchdowns and ran for 823.5 yards. He scored 14 touchdowns in 1969. In both 1969 and 1970, he was named to the All-SEC team and his #18 jersey was retired by Ole Miss. In 1969, Manning was Mississippi Sportsman of the Year and recipient of the Nashville Banner Trophy as Most Valuable Player in the Southeastern Conference. He was fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting in 1969 and third in 1970. Manning was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1989. Manning's legacy is honored to this day on the campus of Ole Miss where the speed limit is eighteen miles per hour in honor of Manning's jersey number. Bear Bryant would go on to say he was the best college quarterback he would ever see play.[2] During his time at Ole Miss, Manning was a brother of Sigma Nu Fraternity. Manning was named Southeastern Conference Quarterback of the Quarter Century (1950-75) by several publications

Image submitted and yes it is for real... I would like to meet the person that put it there...

Getting a little frustrated - I had about 10 signs that were comical or confusing - ALL GONE! So, now I'm trying to find something. Thankfully, the city is having its annual carnival next weekend, and there's bound to be some stupid sign telling you not to do something stupid...

Oh this will be easy!
