We love when we spot something cool/weird/wacky around Denver. And, as it turns out, the Mile High has tons of snarky, clever, and ridiculous signs posted about the city 🪧😂

After we shared an anti-parking sign on 36th and Wazee, reader Heather K. sent in this funny warning to drivers, which she saw in the Montclair neighborhood.

Nora A. also shared a poignant pigeon poster from Baker. Penelope the pigeon was last seen in a watermelon outfit.

Have you seen something quirky or curious around town recently? We’d love to see it, too.
