I’m convinced it’s some sort of insurance scam perpetrated by Walmart.

There is a pole in the parking lot, for a stop sign or something, it's been ran into like 40+ times according to the other post about it.

Auburn has the Walmart pole.

Portland has the Home Depot guardrail, which has been obliterated by trucks at least twice a year for the past five years.
