While driving from Austin to Corpus Christi, I noticed this peculiar hotel in Cuero, TX:
And then compare to the Holiday Inn Express corporate sign:
My theory is that it used to be a Holiday Inn Express (HIE) but lost its accreditation when corporate raised its standards about a decade ago. In order to meet the new HIE standards, this structure would probably have to be razed. And the Hindu references would need to be removed.
