Someone in the 213 just turned one of California's most recognizable landmarks into a big endorsement for 420.
Los Angeles residents woke up on New Year's Day to the sight of the iconic "Hollywood" sign having been transformed into "Hollyweed," the work of an apparent prankster.

A representative for the Los Angeles Police Department's Security Services Division told CNBC that an unknown perpetrator climbed up the sign and used a tarp to create an effect turning both 'O's in the sign to 'E's. He added that the incident was being investigated as an act of trespassing.

The only thing that concerns me about this photo is how much dust seems to be in the air.

Yep, I am already liking what I am seeing

 

[Killthee]

are you allowed to sit on the sign?

Can't get anywhere near it legally. Place is closed off with a fence around the tower.

 

[Village]

giggles uncontrollably

Despite how old I get, still 12 I suppouse

continues to giggle

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Weeeeeeeeed

 

[the anime man]

Smoke weed everyday

 

[SJRB]

He he, "weed".

 

[Kathian]

Impressive and non damaging. Not vandalism.

 

[Princess Viola]

nice

 

[Luminaire]

I'd be more impressed if they made it say HELLAWEED instead.

 

[Sir Abacus]

are you allowed to sit on the sign?

No. There's a gate that's at the bottom of Mt Lee Drive that's always shut and explicitly says no hiking.

I'd be more impressed if they made it say HELLAWEED instead.

That would be Norcal not Socal.

2017 looking to be lit af, I'm taking this as a very good omen


Edit: I'm also really pleased to see they vandalized with cloth, which probably caused no actual damage to the sign itself! That's some good shit

 

[ghostofsparta]

I'd be more impressed if they made it say HELLAWEED instead.

Then everyone in LA would get triggered for for using the word hella

Well, they probably have to replace a padlock or section of chain link fence somewhere. But at least there's no actual damage to the sign, so meh.

 

[RyanW]

They're in the process of fixing it now: https://www.facebook.com/CBSLA/videos/10154894411590859/

S/O to Hollywoed!
