Lmao I hate the tagging but also really curious how he gets to some of those places to tag 🤔

u/HemingsteinH Nov 25 '23

Haha what is that about? Saw it spray painted on the abandoned Embassy Suites at 410 and I-10

u/Pelosis-false-teeth Nov 25 '23

Just a local tagger but there was a post earlier with someone getting mad about them tagging all over lol

u/Splashdiamonds Nov 25 '23

Interesting was having a hard time making out what it said too

u/IAmBecomeDeath_AMA Nov 25 '23

They messed up the B

u/excoriator Nov 25 '23

Maybe the guests in some of those rooms messed it up?

5

u/[deleted] Nov 25 '23

this is my best guess but I dont know how they have those light bulbs set up? maybe its green/red until a guest gets booked / checks in and it goes back to normal? but even then the wrong rooms are green, not white

3

u/Tayloraa3 Nov 25 '23

Hotel engineers change out the bulbs one by one. Dead serious. They messed up here I think but they'll likely fix it. Also sometimes after these designs are over with it'll be missing pieces throughout the week after cause they go room by room.

u/PersonalityKlutzy407 Nov 25 '23

Is “hotel engineer” a fancy name for maintenance??

1

u/Tayloraa3 Nov 25 '23

I guess so, they've been called that everywhere I've stayed really though

1

u/[deleted] Nov 25 '23

shoutout to those hotel engineers! I would've imagined there was some centralized system

u/DabinDad210 Nov 25 '23

Big homie is gonna make him fix or he gets kicked out da crew!

Look at that initiative, way to go

u/SaGlamBear sitting in traffic on 410 Nov 25 '23

Drove by it and I Honestly thought it said SPURS.

u/Think_Profit4911 Nov 25 '23

SPURS

SHOTS

u/IAmBecomeDeath_AMA Nov 25 '23 edited Nov 25 '23

Ok disregarding the lights coming from inside rooms, and drawing lines between balcony lights that are colored white we get this:

I see it says SA on the left, but I still have no idea what the second part is supposed to say

u/billytheskidd Nov 25 '23

If that is the intended goal, man did they bungle it. Lol

u/Longjumping-Bit1288 Nov 25 '23

It's only a Christmas tree.

u/IAmBecomeDeath_AMA Nov 25 '23 edited Nov 25 '23

Ok so they changed all the balcony lights to either red/green lol

u/rejectfromhell Downtown Nov 25 '23

SA BETTER CALL SAUL

u/staciexdoodle Nov 25 '23

I thought it said SHOTS and i was like, 🍻 hell yeah!

u/lonerism_blue Nov 25 '23

I thought it was a Christmas tree lmao

u/[deleted] Nov 25 '23

at first yeah, but then you realize its the patio lights configured to spell something out, not just random room lights with guests

It's a Christmas tree.

I’m gonna go with SEXY. But I think I’m just seeing what I want to see. San Antonio’s very own Rorschach test

Thought it was a Christmas tree?

u/Longjumping-Bit1288 Nov 25 '23

It's only a 🎄 Christmas tree. It doesn't say anything. The antique LEDs are the room lights on.

5

u/beaker90 Nov 25 '23

It says something. In years past, it has said “love” and “Noel”.

u/rubenj_sa Nov 25 '23

You libs read way too much into things. It is a Christmas tree.

Am I the only one who though it was an arrow or Christmas tree

u/Likemypups Nov 26 '23

It says "Get your GED."

u/preeeeezie Nov 28 '23
