Sign reading "Warning Parking Violators will be Immobilized, Mercy Hospital Security Department" near Mercy Hospital in Scranton, Pennsylvania, March 18th 2005.
I saw this sign on the fence by a parking lot while taking a walk in downtown Scranton the other day.
Sort of conjures up visions of the men in the white coats coming to take motorists away from their cars, subduing them with an injection of Haldol, and taking them away in four point restraints to the hospital's psych ward.
If I saw this same sign on a parking lot near a restaurant in West Side Scranton, I would imagine people getting their legs broken by big men in hair pomade & black jackets.
I'm sure they mean they'll immobilize the cars in violation. But it sounded like the makings of quite a scene.
I, for one, will not be parking in that lot, that's for sure.
