WHAT WERE WE THINKING?

From the lot, the banners looked big, but not this BIG.

Each banners is 20' x 20'.

WHAT WERE WE THINKING?

We did manage to score a couple of Landshark signs and
Buffett/Tequila banners first....then this.

I am still amazed they both fit in our SUV.

Awesome... at Nissan this year they had the police surrounding a few Landshark and tequila signs. I waited around after most of the crowd left just to see the cops take the signs for themselves. I guess they're not all bad.

Good haul!

Now that we have them, we are not sure what we are going to do with them.

My wife was trying to score a Landshark umbrella, which would be useful on beach days, or just a sunny day....but no go.

These banners are too damn big.

For scale, check the playset in the upper-right corner of the picture;
these banners dwarf it all.

They are pretty heavy-duty too, but no good as a tarp as they
are made to allow air through.

Great haul!

I'm thinking sun shades! They let air through, but should provide a little shade, no? Make your own Landshark gazebo!

Nice!!!! [smilie=coolup.gif]

We loved that banner and were watching them hang it up -- it took about 4 guys!! And of course had to have our pic taken with it in the background!!

Good luck figuring out how best to use it!

What fun! :D

reminds me of the Knoxville concert a few years ago. sitting on the deck of a local bar, Rep just hung the "corona presents: Jimmy, etc,etc." you know, the one where he had hair :)...anyway, I casually mentioned that banner would look pretty good in my garage, few beers later, he pulls out a switchblade and snick!

stuffed it in his shirt... I took it to Lamination Services here in town and they mounted it on a board with frame for FREE! Ah, Parrotheads...

Anybody else lusting after the big yellow seaplanes on the beer isle??

I have one of those. I paid too much for one on ebay. It looked excellent in my place. Believe it or not, my wife didn't agree. It's deflated and in a box in my closet awaiting the day I have a place to put it and all the other stuff in the box with it. [smilie=mad.gif]
