consider me impressed.
Well, someone made their tribute to Ryan... that's for sure.
Funny, I was just today thinking about how I wish someone (not me, not nearly talented enough) would do something similar in my town, but also figured the cross of interests would be difficult to find of graffiti artist who was also a duder.
So glad I was wrong.
How'd you notice this or did you know before hand?
Shawn Elliott posted it on Twitter, and then Patrick retweeted it.

The first thing I've seen since the news that has made my jaw drop. Fucking Rad! Olly Moss' drawing is up there. That was sweet. THIS is dope!
Giantbomb has the best, most compassionate fans. Bar none.
Where is this? San Francisco?
No its savannah Georgia I live really close to here I've been to the Tea Room twice this is so amazing to see something like this so close to home!!!
If anyone is curious to this exact location
Again having something like this in my backyard is really making my day.

That's pretty awesome, I wonder how long it will stay up there. There has been graffiti on an overpass near me for months now that simply reads, "SLUTS GAG".
Remember, he did love Jet Set Radio Future...
Beat me to it. However, remember:
It's cool people want to remember him, but you don't have to vandalise stuff to do it.

"Have to" and "want to" are two very different statements, though. = D
All Ryan would have ever wanted is to be immortalized with a crime.
I don't think he would want it any other way.

Graffiti done to deface is obvious, and while it doesn't make it ok when its done right and in a sensible location it looks fantastic, its above streetview its well done I appreciate it being there.
Awesome, but why do we never see shit like this for people until they die? We need to celebrate people more while they are alive.
Because you don't fully appreciate the significance of someone or something until it's ripped out of your life. It's human nature.
Oh man, that's the best. Which segment was this? I'll have to look it up.

True. Such a shame though. So I would like to say that I think Jeff, Brad, Vinnie, and Patrick are all awesome and as much of an influence on my life as Ryan was. I love you guys as well. <>
I know I'm the newest of new here but when I saw that graffiti, I couldn't help but think of the OBEY image. I put out a simple request of making something like that with Ryan's face and, the internet being what it is, it happened! Let's get this thing shared around, printed up and tagged on the streets.
