Another interesting thing at that interchange is KDOT using control cities on a 3di other than I-135—itself pretty unusual—meaning we get the rare fully-spelled out "Oklahoma City". (Every state that borders Oklahoma has their own control city fairly close to the border, and in Oklahoma itself it is nearly always abbreviated as "Okla. City".)

Here's a potential worst... this sign was intended as a borough limit sign, but was instead modified very sloppily to be a distance sign:



Note that the edits are in yellow, and that the number is unclear (it's 1, not 7).
