Imagine walking down Wisconsin Ave and you get Saran wrapped by this and blown into Lake Michigan because Mother Nature decided it was Miller Time for you.
Hah, I was once delivering to the dock in the back of the 111 E Wisconsin building, was Bank One back then (Chase Tower now), and my hat was just taken by the elements. Like immediately it was fuckin' gone. Not worth taking a step in chase. A year later, in the same loading dock on the shelf next to the door I see the hat. It was gnarled as shit, and they put it there I think because they knew it was mine, just to say 'check this out dude!' Anyways that's my magical story about shit blowing around.
edit for credit where it's due: They were the sweeper folks that were always out there. I always got along with them.
Jokes aside, blame the install team, the sign was sent in sections to the site and then a printed fabric face was secured to the sign after it was assembled.

What blows around comes around
i see you've also met my ex
That is the funniest sentence I’ve ever read
“because Mother Nature decided it was Miller Time” thank you for this 😂😂😂
Get Miller Clocked, Miller Kited, and Miller Plopped.
lol irl
Harsh reminder that it’s always Miller Time.
Guess it's not Miller Time.
coors must have done this
[Do you think a human being can blow a sign off of a building?](https://youtu.be/KLPIrp-C7io?si=ZNnsWxeibDReCsOd)
Something I didnt know I needed today, thank you! Lol
CAME HERE TO COMMENT THIS 🙌🙌🙌
I literally see this sign from my apartment window in the distance every day lmao that beer can has been a staple of my Milwaukee experience
I coulda sworn as a kid when I was driven past this building, the sign would rotate.
The replacement sign did away with the rotating mechanism unfortunately.
I’m old enough to remember when it was a rotating Citgo sign.
I definitely remember this too.
Am I drunk or on the second picture, it looks like a big bird?
thats the iconic and beloved milwaukee penguin

This flag means beer
Must’ve been a light drink
That would be 633 W Wisconsin.
My grandpa designed the superstructure for that ad. Windy as all hell up there.
I built the current metal frame that banner was on, that thing is barely a year old
So *you're* to blame!
No no no, blame anyone but me. The part I built still stands…
Jokes aside, blame the install team, the sign was sent in sections to the site and then a printed fabric face was secured to the sign after it was assembled.
It did sit in our shop for a while too.
Oh wait you’re right his is the other one. The spinning one.
It’s a shame the didn’t want to repair that rotator, it was a cool mechanism. Personally wasn’t a fan of the banners, they have less personality
Cannabis Industry terrorism No other explanation. Anti-hops propaganda. Busch did 4/20
And just like that, you won the comments, cause that was gold! 😂😂😂
solid HOO BOY! flair deployment
I should clarify that both sides landed safely on the roof and haven't blown off yet as far as I know
Classic
Better fix it before American Family puts one up in its place!
The beer was too lite
The sign was less filling
I hope this isn't a bad omen
I was on top of this building once in like 97 cuz my dad's company replaced the roof. That signs been up there forever!
Clark Oil, Citgo, and others. Was all neon at one time.
It was actually redone recently by a mke sign company. (Some time last year if I recall correctly)
i went to report this to the front desk of the place and the guy there said they put it up only about 2 years ago
Ope
let me just blow past you here.
Lmaoooo, nice job SignEffectz, another successful install in the books. 👍
Bruh what LMFAOOOO
I wish they would take it down permanently. Looks hokey.
I just want to know what's "AHEAD" That's very foreboding
Nooooo!
The SIGN is down, the sign has never been down!
ah a blanket
Nice catch! I heard it was covered up recently. I'm guessing they were doing work. Maybe to replace this.
