I saw one tonight on I-45 heading south into downtown Houston. However instead of football, it was a picture of a team huddle during a basketball game. Good photo and easy to read the URL.


Where is it? Do you remember a cross street?

As you head south on I-45, it is between the Shepherd curve and East Little York Rd. It is one of the elevated billboards on the east side of the freeway. Will confirm exact location tonight.

I have to go to the Woodlands today. I'll look for it on my way home.

Good! I hate every time I fly into Love Field and it's purple toads everywhere.

Coming from League City, you should have seen both of them:
* Northbound I-45, about a mile or two south of Hobby Airport (off to the right).
* Southbound I-45, near exit 56B (off to the left and before the Shepherd curve)

I question the marketing use of billboards now that everyone is texting while they drive.

Last year, we had one a couple miles north of Hobby off to the right.

Regardless, this is outstanding.

Thanks. I didn't see the one near Hobby, but I was driving. Thankfully, I was able to take Hardy Toll Road so I wasn't on 45 to see the one going south.

Saw a new one today on Central southbound - on the left side just north of Churchill Way.

Looks like the program is still going. After the others in the Houston rotated off, they've add one on I-45 next to The Woodlands. Billboard is on the west side of the freeway and visible to traffic heading north as it nears Woodlands Parkway.

I saw some in H-Town over the holidays - one on the Gulf Freeway southbound.

The one on I-45 near the UH campus really upset the UH fans. There is a discussion on their fan site with all their fans chiming in and they are excessively bothered by it.
