This place used to be a sex store with attendant tattoo shops and similar. Only recently did it attempt to rebrand itself as "Uranus". In fact, there's still a billboard across the road "Pornography Pollutes" directed at the establishment. MarchHare (talk) 19:29, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- There is a lot of misinformation in this talk post. The billboard is a play on words, owned by one of the store's owner. Selling sex in Missouri is illegal, so there has never been a "sex store" in the town of Uranus. That does not make sense.Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View tutorial I am currently working on Wikipedia articles of interest and significance, located within driving distance of my home in Rolla, Missouri. I have found the residents and industry in Uranus to be fascinating. Currently, I am waiting to purchase a better camera to photo document unique and culturally significant artifacts located in Uranus, curated by its odd and wealthy residents.Amsauerwein (talk) 19:15, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- Historically, the place has been host to several incarnations of signs advertising its wares.
- Google Maps has a July 2012 image of a sign at 14400 US Rt 66 with "Exotic Dancers" "Big Louie's "Adult Store" and "Chicken Bones".
- By January 2016 it had been replaced by signs for tattoos, guns, archery and the "Uranus Fudge Factory and General Store".
- By November 2021 the main sign was for the Uranus Fudge Factory with smaller roadside signs including mentions of Butts, Nuts and "The best fudge comes from Uranus".
