Austin Restaurant Mocks Amy Winehouse: Bad Taste?

This photo has been making the rounds on Rocks Off's Facebook feed for the past couple of days, so we thought we'd run it up our own flagpole. It's El Arroyo, an Austin Tex-Mex restaurant popular with... oh, shall we say, the "ballcap" crowd. In other words, they sell a lot of margaritas, and don't even think about trying to get a table if the Horns are playing.

Right now the Facebook comments are running about two to one against. Some people think it's funny, while others think El Arroyo shows about as much taste in its wit as in its food. Apparently the day after Winehouse died, this sign said, "They tried to make her go to rehab, she said no, no, no."

So... yeah. What do you think?
