Ridiculously Over-Ambitious Sign Announces Opening of Huge, Unusable Parking Garage

The City of Alameda just spent millions of dollars on a new parking garage. You can't tell the Alameda Daily Noose and me that they still have money to throw around on two-story neon signs, just to advertise to their under-utilized mistake. We all know that the garage is in Alameda, so we don't know why they felt the need to include that information so prominently on the sign. How stupid do they think we are?

Clearly this move was in response to our earlier exposé on the shameful lack of advertising for the new parking garage, but the City gave us too much, too late. By this time, everyone is aware that the garage is open, and has been pointedly not parking in it as a protest. If our City Council can't tell the difference between deliberately driving past with our noses in the air, and just not noticing that the garage is open, then it's time we replaced them with someone more perceptive.
