That's something you don't see very often in West Virginia -- a square three-digit sign. I approve.

Wow, you guys are digging up many more examples of 3/9's than I ever would have thought of! Well done!

HAH...after looking through the thread, I have found that we have already represented 47 of the 48 possible states! Guess which one we are missing? Hint: we saved the "best for last".
