This Stan’s sign has been featured before in “capturing sweet city signs” but I thought the sub-sign was really odd. Good luck! Your captions in the comments section and winner announced Friday.

    Stan didn’t care if the yuppies pushed out another pawn shop. This was a business opportunity.

  • WDC

    Just when I was feeling pretty good about myself, I saw an opportunity to stock up on self-loathing, and given my bargain shopping addiction, was powerless to resist.

  • quigley

    Stan doesn’t know when he’ll repaint the missing ‘S,’ he says he just doesn’t have the ambition at the moment.

  • Murdoch

    Fear and Lothing isn’t just for Las Vegas anymore. Come lose your shirt (and gold) at Stan’s!

  • Wanksta

    Bring the gold.

  • E-Rich

    “Why trust your gold to those frauds on the TV when at Stan’s you can trade it in for some quality lothing?”

  • spirit equality

    For the bargain shopper too wary to carry cash on H St, bring your bullion on down to get your Parasuco on!

  • Bryan

    Eminem’s number one fan – Stan – survived driving his car off Key Bridge. He was subsequently arrested for having his girlfriend in the trunk. During his breif stint through the DC Justice System he was able to build the skillz neccessary to start his own business.

  • 20something

    If there is one things Washingtonians do well, it’s loathe on a budget

  • MarkB

    Pat, I’d like to buy a C. Oh, you can only buy vowels…then I’d like to solve the puzzle. Then I’d like to buy an A.

  • Sunny Florida Avenue

    Remember kids, it’s not stealing from your grandma if she’s too old to even know.

  • annieon11th

    Stan once dreamed of providing discount clothing for all through his seemingly foolproof plan of spinning straw into gold. Many failed attempts and several batches of specialty straw strains later, Stan now “lothes” discounts.

  • USA! USA!

    This shop fits Chairman Mao to a ‘T’.

  • Stephanie

    Because you wouldn’t dream of puting your trouser snake in someone else’s pAnts.

  • CHisOK

    Why pay full price to be unsatisfied with your place in life? Stop by Stan’s for some discount loathing. We’ll mock your financial status, emotional insecurity and any repressed issues from your childhood. All at a discount price!

  • KR

    After failing to defeat Austin Powers, Goldmember (real name: Stan) opened a clothing store. We like goooold! And discount clooooothes!
