Sorry to be pedantic, Soxred93, but what you've indicated is a Gobo Holder, not a gobo. (I'm sure you already knew that.)
Here's a good example of how gobos can add texture and interest to a stage floor, as well as actors moving though them.
Here's what it looks like in the catalog:
PNTA On-Line - Detail1 - R77780 - 77780 Dense Leaves Det Rosco Pattern - "B" size - Gels, Filters & Gobos - - PNTA On-Line
Gobo Visualizer is an online tool that allows one to choose a gobo, rotate it, stack two, color, and blur the edge. Moiré Gobo Library is a similar app for the iPhone.

First off, I lied, they are actually 36˚ units. There are 24 in the system. The trim from deck to batten is 27'. As for why they really punch is probably a combination of factors. The floor treatment for this show happens to take light very well. Many scenes are generally on the dimmer side as we put a lot of people in followspots. This allows us to be more "artsy" with the rest of the design. We don't even have to run that system very hot to get the pattern to punch.
