I once saw a Kentucky Fried Chicken store (before it was shortened to "KFC"!), and directly across the street was a no-name fried chicken restaurant. The sign in front said, "If the Colonel had OUR recipe, he'd be a general by now."
...A great one that makes you chuckle is along I-90 east of Mitchell, SD which advertises a local garage and towing service. The sign says: "Dick's Toe Service".
I've seen a tow service called Tow Jam...really.

There is a restaurant in Atlanta across the street from a cemetery. The restaurant is called Six Feet Under.
On gravel roads here in Washington, we sometimes get: PRIMITIVE ROAD NEXT 3 MILES. I keep expecting Neanderthals to leap out with clubs and demand that I hand over my mammoth meat and flint-knapping tools.
"Parking for Whiteys only" (in front of Whiteys Bar & Grill--sort of a cowboy/redneck bar)
"Parking in Rear" (In front of a gay bar)
