Broken: Fresh donuts sign
Flickr user Triborough points out a sign from Long Island City in New York:
This picture was taken at Queensboro Plaza in Queens.
The store owner should probably redo the "donuts" sign text if they want to try and convince customers to buy their "fresh donuts!"
They should post a sign (handwritten, of course) that states: "Pardon our appearance. We are so busy making the freshest donuts possible that we don't have time to fix our sign. Enjoy!"

i live by this place they changed the sign because it used to be the same exact sign as dunkin donuts except it said fresh instead of dunkin. you can see the similarity in the fresh part from dunkin donuts. I guess if they changed the entire sign people wouldnt recognize it.
I usually get donuts from a bakery/Grocery Store or Donut shop.. I normally don't think of going to a pizza/italian food place for donuts..be they fresh or stale LOL...maybe it's just me or im not in the New York Frame of mind..

It looks like they changed it from something else. Given what's below it, I'm guessing pizza or maybe some other Italian food.
FIRST!
