August 18, 2015Craziest and Coolest Graffiti on Street Signs
If you’re driving or biking around town, gazing out the window on the bus, or taking a leisurely stroll with you dog, when you come across a red and white “STOP” sign, you see a stop sign — no more, no less. But when visually creative people and artists see a stop sign, they see endless possibilities. Here are some of the craziest and coolest graffiti on street signs out there.

Though many of us find these altered street signs amusing and incredibly creative and cool, not everyone feels the same way. Street artists catch a lot of heat for their pieces. For our sake, we hope they keep up the good work — nothing makes you smile on a crappy day like surprise art.
