## The story

Right before the test pattern, Channel 7 played the same three minutes every night: a sunset over a lake, a seagull landing on a post, and a mellow saxophone that sounded like it was also very sleepy. Night owls knew every frame. If you heard the saxophone, you knew you were officially up way too late.

## Fun fact

The seagull became so famous around town that a local bakery named a cinnamon roll after it.
