While at the Terminal 4 baggage claim at Sky Harbor Airport this sign caught my eye. It was all I could do to not laugh out loud. Since I am not carrying a blackberry pearl (ie a camera on hand), I had to go back with a camera to share the joy.There are so many things that are funny about this Welcome to Phoenix.
1. It is a small sign near the Nascar exhibit, who really sees?
2. Noone uses Terminal 2
3. 90% of the flights go in and out of Terminal 4. It is incredibly inconvenient to get to Terminal 2, why would anyone let alone military personnell go to a hospitality room instead of their hotel.
4. If I want a hospitality room in between flights why would I go to baggage claim to find out about it.
It is an election year. Maybe it is just good marketing.
This seriously is the best observation in months. It couldn't be written better.
ReplyDeleteI will be tracking down this sign on my next trip so I can laugh in person.
Phoenix must have had some extra money in the budget and needed to spend it quickly. I think Mayor Gordon could screw up a one-car parade, but that's just my humble opinion! Love the pic!
ReplyDeleteThis is apparently fairly common? I believe that I saw similar "The Mayor (insert name here) welcomes you to (insert city name here)" in Chicago and New York? I remember mocking the signs then too...long before my blogging days!
