Local 'Ann Arbaugh' bank welcomes Jim Harbaugh with clever billboards

Local businesses have also gotten into the Harbaugh holiday spirit, as evidenced by this series of billboards the Bank of Ann Arbor had put up around town Tuesday morning, just in time for the university's official introduction:
