There's story behind this sign

Beware of Strong Sad
"And one morning, I shot an elephant in my pyjama. To this day, I can't explain who the elephant got into my pyjama."
"One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know."
- Captain Geoffrey T. Spaulding Played by Groucho Marx in Animal Crackers
We discussed the sentence in linguistics class in university. I didn't remember the origin
No worries, in this time of attributing all quotes to random people. I like to attribute them correctly when I can.
If you have never seen Groucho get into full swing it is worth a watch. He had a way with a line that was like no other. The Marx brothers (Groucho, Chico, Harpo, and Zeppo) were one of the few acts that were able to make it from vaudeville to cinema.
Oh and just because someone is going to be confused about Zeppo he was the straight man and wasn't always in their films.
P.S. there was also Gummo but he never liked it and left before the transition to cinema
The Platonic Academy was founded in 387 BCE and things just developed from there.
My thought exactly.
One is an animal commonly, yet controversially, hunted for sport.
The other is an elephant.
Beware AMERICAN billionaires
USA isn't even top 10 fattest anymore
Hey! Well done fellow Americans! We're all the way at #12!
My thanks to all those Pacific Islanders, slamming back turkey tails so Americans can look better.
Beware of man with never ending hobby budget

The sign

With that picture all I can think is of that guy that could hold an automatic rifle (or equivalent no idea of weapons) under his belly.
