Got told my office lobby sign was impossible to read from the parking lot

Some guy from the building next door walked over and said my fancy serif font looked like a blurry mess from 50 feet away. Swapped it for a bold sans serif with more contrast and now people actually find the entrance on the first try. Anyone else had a sign fail that seemed obvious after someone pointed it out?

Bought a food truck once and put the menu in a script font. Thought it looked classy. Nobody could read it from the sidewalk.

Yeah the kerning on serif fonts gets real iffy from a distance.
