Several interpretations of the Comet Ping Pong street sign have been proposed.
One interpretation connects it to Satan (or whatever demonic creature that was supposed to be).
Another interpretation I have seen was based on a reference to the Islam crescent, supposedly in relation with Saudi elites
In fact, it turns out that the explanation for the strange sign is much pedestrian: Alefantis simply bought it from a liquor store that was closing down. He took back both the sign and the name "Comet"

the pizza parlor apparently owes its name to last year's sad passing of liquor store owner and neighborhood legend Sid Drazin, who, with his wife Bernice, ran Adams-Morgan's Comet Liquors for 25 years. Carole Greenwood and James Alefantis have acquired the sign and, barring objection from the usual neighborhood cranks, will get it up, no doubt, where they're good and ready. In the mean time, I'm glad these guys were the ones to get hold of of it

Find your "usual neighborhood cranks." They will tell the dirty. Review the minutes of any local commission meeting that might have a record of who the cranks may be. The type of people who attend local government meetings to complain want to be heard.

The symbolism could be the reason Alefantis liked it so much that he bought it and started a business using it!

Tell ya what - put together a backgrounder on the owner of Comet Liquors and add that to your "discovery". Then it will be relevant.

Study the Baphomet, he's holding crescent over star at 10pm and 4pm, the exact same as the sign over comet-pizza. This is a classic signal to any CROWLEY follower that this establishment is SATANIC.
It doesn't matter where he bought the sign, its a symbol for Baphomet, the goat-god of satanic child rape.

Baphomet crescent over star, is the same symbol used by all Crowley followers, people who believe that eating, fucking & bleeding baby's will make you into a superman/woman.
The Sigil of Baphomet is the official insignium of the Church of Satan and is trademarked and copyrighted by the Church of Satan

Yes, but bought it for a reason maybe? This is a poster designed by one of the Comet Ping Pong designers: http://sadgirlsguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/coldbeat.png And now Baphomet: https://ixquick-proxy.com/do/show_picture.pl?l=english&rais=1&oiu=http%3A%2F%2Fgnosticwarrior.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2013%2F06%2FBaphomet-by-Levi.jpg&sp=4a4a73075b5a59eb5edbf370b5d0d41c
