sign spinners
Roadside advertising acrobats
Sign spinners are workers who stand on sidewalks or street corners holding advertising signs, typically for nearby businesses.
Rather than simply holding the sign still, they spin, flip, and twirl it to attract attention from passing traffic.
The job is physically demanding and often performed in costume or extreme weather: The sign spinner outside the tax office was doing tricks with an arrow pointing to the strip mall.
