Is Academy Award nominee Banksy in Imperial Beach?

Exit Through the Gift Shop [Blu-ray]Early Sunday morning, another "rat" has shown up in San Diego County and the rumors are that it is the artistic work of Banksy, the international graffitti artist that has been nominated for an Academy Award for best documentary "Exit Through the Gift Shop."
This one is much, much smaller and is located next to a sign that says, "No Dumping Private Property, Under Video Surveillance" on 9th and Emory Streets in Imperial Beach.
Yesterday, a "big rat" appeared on the exterial wall of Bull Taco Shop in Oceanside and is believed to be the work of Banksy. Did Banksy decide to hang around San Diego for another night, before going up to LA for the Academy Awards this Sunday? Possibly, but there is speculation that he won't even show up for the award show, but if he does, he will he be in disguise, and many of his fans will be watching tonight to see if he does.

Academy Award nominee suspected of tagging Oceanside Taco Shop

A street artist known as Banksy, who has been nominated for an Academy Award, may be responsible for the "tagging" of an Oceanside Taco Shop, early Saturday morning.
Bull Taco shop has a new oversized white rat flying a kite on it's outside wall now. And it is not just any kite, the kite shows a family running, depicting the highway sign that is familiar to San Diegan's driving the freeways near San Ysidro.

There has been a lot of sightings of the artists portrayal of these road signs popping up all over Los Angeles and this is the first one in San Diego County.
