It was reported yesterday that the famous Hollywood sign in Los Angeles had been altered to read 'Hollyweed' for new year's day 2017.
An anonymous vandal had approached the premises at 3am and placed two massive Anarchist-symbol emblazoned tarpaulins over the Os to make then look like Es.
Many have celebrated the daring move, including the likes of pro-weed popstar Miley Cyrus and former Jackass star Steve-O, who some might have guessed was behind the renovation.
Now, the folks at Rockstar - a games publisher founded in Leeds, the greatest city on Earth - has made its own gag, posting a picture of the Vinewood sign from San Andreas to 'Vineweed.'

Vinewood is the mock-up Hollywood in the 'Grand Theft Auto' universe.
It isn't the first time the sign has been changed. Back in 1976, student Danny Finegood changed the Os to Es to commemorate recent marijuana laws of the time.
"We broke no laws and did no damage to the sign," he said of the decision.

"An artist's role throughout history has been to create representations of the culture he exists in. By hanging four relatively small pieces of fabric on the landmark, we were able to change people's perception of the Hollywood Sign."
The 2017 'vandal' is yet to be named.
