El Arroyo's Big Book of Signs: Volume One contains 158 pictures of El Arroyo marquee signs over the years.
El Arroyo posts a different sign every day. The sign's witticisms are thought up and discussed via email by a group of about 15 people connected to the restaurant including managers and owners. Ideas can come from anywhere, however. The restaurant even has a joke submission page on their website, and told Austin 360 that the signs are "generally picked based on how hard we were laughing reading."
