Q for anyone who rides MAX from East side to Downtown.... (Portland: transit, steel)

[philwithbeard]

Can anyone who rides the MAX lines from the East side to downtown verify something for me?

As you leave the Rose Quarter Transit Center, (all 4 Max lines, BTW) and head over to the ramps for the Steel Bridge, there is a new large billboard sign attached to several concrete silos for the Portland Blazer Pro Basketball Team. The last two years the theme of the billboard advertisements for the Blazer's has been "Rise With Us."

Well this year, the new graphic image is a Team High Five only showing the wrists and hands of what should be the members of the Team. Looks Cool, and no big deal.

However, I just noticed that the Team High Five is sort of in the outline shape of Mt. Hood. Get it? Rise With Us, active volcano mountain, as in We're going to erupt this year with our lava hot playing, and when we do erupt, we will bury our competition in dust, a bury in dust like Mt. St. Helen did.

Maybe a bit over optimistic, if my reading the billboard graphic is correct.
So, can anyone verify the Team High Five is in the outline shape of Mt. Hood? Portland's local active volcano.

That eruption you are referring to is the knees of the players.

Sorry I couldn't help myself.
