My all-time favorite was on I-4 westbound near downtown Orlando in the late 1970s, for a hotel (don't remember which one) that advertised its "roomy rooms." My sister and I always got a kick out of that one.

Billboard next to the stinky 41 interchange with WI 55 in Kaukauna was for the Aroma Inn.

This billboard is fairly close to my home and, until recently, it was an ad for a cannabis dispensary in Evanston featuring a pineapple wearing sunglasses (cannabis wouldn't become legal in Illinois for five months after this photo was taken).  I thought it was interesting for two reasons:

(1) My parents would use it as a navigational landmark with my son ("turn right at the pineapple") - we don't know if they knew what the ad was for
(2) It's been replaced by one of those (83) FOR-TRUTH billboards.
