An image of an entryway inside of a building. There are signs posted outside the entryway: one saying "coffee inside," one saying "arcade inside," and three in different colors saying "arcade". Once a person enters the entryway there are more signs pointing in the same direction as the signs posted outside the entryway. These signs say "arcade inside", "card kiosk this way", "more games this way". This picture is captioned with "there is a point where signage goes from 'informative' to 'am i in the looney tunes universe now and what does the coyote want from me"

    My shop is on the corner, with a bar on either side of it. I have not quite as many signs pointing out that i am a game shop, but the number of drunks wandering in looking for the beer is too damn high.

    Don't suppose you know where the arcade is?

    This is how I would get kidnapped.

    "Hmmm....I wonder if they have Galaga?"

    And people will still miss it. There's a bakery on the other side of the road from where I live that has 5 signs telling people to not force the turnstile before getting a card. Once a month they have to fix it because someone tried to walk past it.

    The same thing happens when leaving! They hired someone to just stand in front of it, press the card button and hand people the card.

    I'd be curious. I'd also be a bit disappointed if it were only coffee and games. I feel like that should just be the bait.

    This is like a "free candy inside" rusty white van, but for xenials. At least I think it'd worth it to have a quick look inside.

    Does a pelican own this arcade?

    Signs are probably for the drunken tourists. Looks like one I saw in the French Quarter, likely smells of stale vomit and cheap beer.
