Rigging in the wild

I stopped by my local Wingstop to grab some dinner. I looked up and noticed how the menu sign is suspended over the cashier's head. Good thing Seattle isn't known for Earthquakes.

Ooh! Rigging IRL! I do this with my tech kids at the beginning of the year. My favorite one is at a local hot dog joint. It's got a window shaker AC hung up by s-hooks and prayer. I'll have to snap a pic next time I get a dog.

IF that ACT is suspended correctly those hooks are "rated" at 15 lbs each...However, they are not meant for side loading and neither are the snap-in cross bars of ACT grid. 'When interior designers become riggers.'

I am continually surprised at the amount of trust people put into S hooks that they can bend into place with one hand.

We walked by, but didn't go there. We ate out behind the Mansion the first time and the second place seems to have been bought out by the Pym Family.
