Nine, Is A Magic Number

Blind Melon wrote their song about 3 but I think that 9 is a much more deserving number.

This road sign was submitted by an amazing road sign enthusiast from Kentucky. H. B. has a great website featuring many road signs. This sign is a really nice winner.



The math on this sign is so elegant. It is straightforward and seductively laid out. You can almost see a "+" sign in between the 2 and 7. The 9 just sits at the bottom waiting after you've put the other numbers together.

$$2 + 7 = 9$$

This sign is located in Carter County, Kentucky. It is at the intersections of highways 2, 7 and 9 near Grayson, KY.
