Statues look a bit odd when they're action shots in the first place (see OP), but when you start adding little props like one-quarter of a backboard that looks like a broken piece of plywood or the hardwood opening up like bamboo sticks, I think you're taking your subject into a much more surreal place than intended.
But it's LSU, not Statuary Hall. It's not like they could feature him making a free throw.

good lord what is that terrifying frank costanza monstrosity, why are there children ossified in his legs?
― the fey monster (ledge), Saturday, 19 May 2012 22:51 (fourteen years ago)
ledge, he's a former mayor of Chicago who was forced to resign after the remains of ossified children were found in his umbrella can.

Either that, or he was the longtime announcer for the Chicago Cubs. I can never remember. </cardinals_fan>
― pplains, Saturday, 19 May 2012 23:01 (fourteen years ago)
The ossified children remind me of the kids under the robe of the Spirit of Chirstmas Yet to Come. Or something from one of the Nightmare on Elm St. Sequels, though I can't place which one. It's so bad, though.

Every time I see that Pat Tillman statue, I hear him saying "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!" as he goes out in a Scarface-like blaze.

I complained about the stern expression given to the Man of Peace earlier, but now I think it's going to be appropriate with summer tourists milling about.
― pplains, Thursday, 31 May 2012 16:39 (fourteen years ago)
ya totally, that picture is exhibit A as to why that stern expression was totally OTM and an eerily prescient call on the part of the sculptor
― that is a weird thing to bring up over lean cuisine (DJP), Thursday, 31 May 2012 16:44 (fourteen years ago)
especially when we get the tourist snap of the girl with the thong hanging out the back of her jeans.I look forward to many MLK stern appraisals
