I think this is the widest BGS I've seen on a single side mount. Seems like they could have stacked the two road names for the 2nd exit to lessen wind resistance. Southbound California 71 a few miles north of CA 91.

For me it's probably this one on I-295 in Virginia: https://goo.gl/maps/nKmFR6BPNNk
The northbound sign for the same interchange is similar: https://goo.gl/maps/9n5sdSu5Zzp
The signs at the interchange itself look more absurd because they left-justified everything, including the route number: https://goo.gl/maps/FiAZS8QNEWz (The southbound one doesn't count for this thread because it's on a gantry rather than a single side mount, this due to another sign for the next exit to the south.)

Good grief! The left-justified sign proves to the world how much wasted green space is on that sign. Why couldn't they just shorten "Technology" down to "Tech."?

:hmmm: I'm not sure that fits the thread criteria...
Pan the image to find the BGS. I don't know why Google sometimes does that.
Does this count?

I'm at my PC for a few minutes, so in the quotation above I've replaced the links in my original post (which were from the Google Maps iPad app) with links from the Street View website. Hope these work better.

I think the OP is looking for a single BGS on a side post, not multiples.

This is unusual, because so many of the "next 3 exit signs" made by Caltrans in the LA area would put a long name like that on two lines, especially if it's two separate streets at one exit.
Like at Atlantic/Bandini:
https://www.google.com/maps/@33.9573901,-118.1703916,3a,75y,7.52h,85.55t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sXvVud8wxRrtt0QLEiep7-w!2e0!7i16384!8i8192
I've always marveled at how that gantry stays up when driving by on CA 71.
