Our signature series, “What Does That Sign Say?”, isn’t just about the laughs. We dive into the hidden meanings, design choices, and occasional blunders found on the streets of Minnesota and beyond.
At Schad Tracy Signs, we’ve spent 45 years mastering the technical side of fabrication—but we never lost our sense of wonder (or humor) for the craft. This is our creative hub for Signage Humor, where we explore the viral, the weird, and the “what were they thinking?” moments that make our industry unique.
In a world of visual noise, Signage Humor is a powerful tool for engagement. A sign that makes a customer smile is a sign they remember. By understanding the “fails” and celebrating the “weird,” we help our clients in the Twin Cities and Rochester build personality-driven branding that stands out in a crowded market. Don’t let your business become a meme for the wrong reasons—let’s build something unforgettable together.
Whether you’ve seen a sign that needs a breakdown, or you’re ready to start a landmark project of your own, our team is ready to talk.
