It was a massive zoomed in waving American Flag around 6:50. Disgusting. Trashy.

The American flag is disgusting and trashy?

A digital bastardization of a waving flag means nothing and is stupid. If you want to wave the Stars and Stripes, do it with a real flag.

Oh ho ho, you thought you really did something there.

It’s a temporary image, not permanent.

Why even have it though? It does look tacky. I mean, the giant screen itself is tacky, but at least do something about Bass Pro or upcoming events etc.

It will be based on aquarium and bass pro content.

Do you know if they turn off the screen at all, or has a downward projection to minimize light pollution?

It turns off at a certain time, usually matches operating hours and when sun comes down typically. It dims based on time as well.

Thanks! I actually haven't been in the area after hours, so I didn't know if it was like where the sign becomes the brightest thing at night and becomes a hazard. There's a billboard on Chestnut that is obnoxiously bright when it has certain images on it.

I wasn’t thinking I did anything Ecofuck. I was asking a question, thanks.

Did I say that? The billboard is an eye sore. And as the other commenter said, it’s a giant LED billboard so yes, that is disgusting and trashy.
