The former tire advertisement repainted with WORSHIP 10:30 while the old ninety-nine-dollar offer remained faintly visible beneath it.
Two descriptions
The sign announced that Promise World had arrived beside the county road.
The earlier message never fully disappeared. For years, drivers could read worship and the old tire price at the same time.
Transcribed record
WORSHIP 10:30
Previous message still faintly visible: four tires for $99
Promise World did not receive a blank sign. It painted a new claim over an older commercial promise and left enough of the first offer visible for strangers to read both.
For several years, Beau says drivers believed worship cost ninety-nine dollars and included installation. The joke survives because the building had changed uses faster than the sign changed meanings.
