[QUOTE]LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A stretch of Interstate 65 near downtown Louisville is back open after being shut down for more than five hours.
The incident started around 9 p.m. when a man climbed onto the sign stretching over the interstate at the St. Catherine Street exit.
Randy Scott provided video to WLKY from earlier in the evening.
Scott said he was exiting the interstate when he spotted the man.
A photo snapshot from TRIMARC cameras at Arthur Street showed a clearer picture of the backup, which went all the way back the Watterson Expressway.
While police tried to talk the man down, a crowd of people showed up to watch.
Police and firefighters were finally able to get the man down just before 3 a.m. Monday.
He was taken to the hospital to be checked out.

Wait, why was there blood on the sign?
Did he eat someone
He cut his wrist on the metal.
Guys its just ketchup
It's the sign. It bleeds for our sins.
Our true hero
Logan?
that first picture makes him look like dr. house, which makes it more funny for me idk why. still confused about the blood all over the sign though.
Looks like Wolverine
He must have had enough of the construction and finally snapped.
I live in Louisville, this was all over the news for most of last night and all of this morning.
Keep Louisville weird, folks.
That sign really showed him.

it was the only thing I saw on facebook for hours last night
I see the League of Methamphetamine Gentlemen has another member, perhaps this newcomer will oust Florida Man as leader of this prestigious organization.
It wasn't too long ago someone jumped off an overpass onto I-65, fuck.
I think the red stuff is rust.

Blood red rust in a spatter pattern over only that specific part of the sign.

Its blood he cut his wrist on the sign
That's a hell lot of blood for cutting his wrist. Did he try to do it intentionally or was it just an accident?
