Oh those wacky Japanese, now they’re making American crops look like their characters! What will they think of next?
Or something.
But seriously, there’s a huge Pac-man in the middle of the US, check it out on Google Earth:
36°58’25.88″n, 101°32’49.54″W
(Or get a satellite photo from Google Maps).
I will be disappointed if farmers don’t start cropping their fields into the shape of Space Invaders next year.
Maybe there could be a new advertising market for adverts designed to be visible in satellite photos? You could park a van with an advert on its roof next to a monument, wait until the satellite photo is updated then move on somewhere else… Of course you could be waiting a long time unless you worked out how to predict when the photos are being taken. Even so, as an idea I think it’s got potential!
Took me a while to track down; Google Earth didn’t want to accept the cooridinates so I had to do it manually.
On a similar note, in a US airforce base:
