    I cant believe what I saw yesterday...

    My girl and I were on our way up to jerome arizona for a nice day trip. Well on the way back, I passed a shell station. The price of gas wasnt $3.27...wasnt $4.27....it was $9.fucking27 a gallon!! I passed it before I could get a picture. Everywhere else was like $2.85 but I couldnt believe what I saw. And that was for 87 octane. Needless to say the gas station didnt have any cars in it. I just thought i'd share.

    I'm thinking the plastic type and someone made a mistake.

    I was guessing either a typo with a digital one or they ran out of plastic squares for the correct number

    Somebody messing with the sign. I once saw a marquee outside a Pizza Hut in Philly that said "now hirin gooks". (Obviously used to say "now hiring cooks")

    My friend used to live accross from a restaurant that would put out their letters on a sign you could reach with out a ladder.

    we'd copy down what it says, go in and scramble the letters and create something new for them all the time.

    maybe the gas pumps were not working?

    I've seen gas stations with really low gas prices like $1.65 when average was abouy 2.50, so when I stopped I noticed all the gas pumps were not in service
