It was a massive zoomed in waving American Flag around 6:50. Disgusting. Trashy.

Is this one of those weird awareness stunts? This is ugly as hell,

I don't really see the point, they have turned their building into a lighted billboard. I suppose when you have billions and billions you have to dream up irrelevant shit to spend it on.

How is this even allowed? It’s going to be so distracting to all of the cars at that stoplight. It seems like it could encourage a car crash with drivers looking at the giant flashing screen instead of the car in front of them

We drove by it after dark and it was so fucking bright… I guess Morris is running out of things to spend money on, so why not add yet ANOTHER giant billboard that is blinding.

We could do things to make our city more beautiful…

…or do ugly things to squeeze every penny from our customers.

I wish someone who plays a key influence on Springfield like Johnny Morris would push Springfield toward beauty. It doesn’t happen over night but it’ll never happen with stuff like this.

This is already one of the most dangerous intersections in town because of the “chicken strip” and a Starbucks that constantly spills out into traffic.

But hey let’s make it even worse lol

Why is everyone angry about a digital billboard? There’s already a ton

Thanks! I actually haven't been in the area after hours, so I didn't know if it was like where the sign becomes the brightest thing at night and becomes a hazard. There's a billboard on Chestnut that is obnoxiously bright when it has certain images on it.

I live so close I see the sign from my porch. They have been doing testing of the sign for a couple months now. It started with a basic Daktronics Home Screen…then the flag a few times and then prob a default proof of motion for technical reasons digital flag.

I literally just went outside and looked at it. It’s now a WOW billboard and it’s not annoyingly bright…looks about right for after dark. I remember the early LED days of cop lights and led billboards…some of those early cop lights were so bright it was truly distracting to drive by.

And yea, this sub is full over over dramatic people who barely leave the house and live life and instead shitpost here to keep the upvote circle jerk alive.

I live close enough to see the new sign off my porch. Just walked out to look after dark.

It’s an appropriate brightness. It’s big but only S bound and W bound will even see it directly.

Ok, I can’t believe it’s a screen. I honestly thought he was building more onto it. Kinda disappointing really
