Maybe it's real, but I chuckle every time I see it.

It's not exactly a "silly" sign...let's just say it is somewhat unusual. I like the sign out in Coral Bay reminding us all to practice safe sex.

I don't have a photo of them though. I like the “Crab Dip” and “Skinny Dip” signs out in Coral Bay. I don’t have a photo of them though.

Other than referring to Cruz Bay as "Downtown St John", it mentioned the Thou Shall not Park sign and intimated that it said something about the island's religious undertones. Needless to say, the article made me mad.
