One of the strangest things that happens when a business fails is that they're not somehow required to clean up or otherwise alter the remnants of their existence in a place. Take this picture - which I snapped five years ago today in Fort Worth, Texas. There was once a Pancho's restaurant here. They were long gone - but their fading sign was still there for the world to see.
But do you know what happened? We left Fort Worth in May of 2019, but according to Gorgle Maps, by December 2018 - barely six months before we left - some enterprising entrepreneur rebranded that sign:
Yep, the former Pancho's sign became a pharmacy sign.
Which may or not may prove my point? Did I have a point? I can't remember.
Oh yeah I was going to tell a Pancho's story but I will save it for some other time.
