Odd Shots Monday – 09/28/08

Posted by Stephany on September 29, 2008

Hockey belongs to the Cartoon Network, where
a person can be pancaked by an ACME anvil,
then expanded – accordion-style – back to
full stature, without any lasting side effect.

Continuing with a virtual vacation on the gulf coast of Florida, today’s “Odd Shot” is the front wall of the Ellenton Ice & Sports Complex (formerly, J.P. Igloo). The sculpture is so large that it can easily be seen from the interstate.

When we weren’t at a Lightning game in Tampa, my camera and I could be found shooting the pickup games at the Igloo.

    Cool picture. I like that he’s depicted busting through the wall like that. :-)

    What a fantastic shot!
    It looks huge in this photo; but seen from the interstate must mean it is REALLY huge.

    Cool sculpture. Hockey is the only sport I sort of like. I used to follow it, but that was MANY years ago. I don’t know much more exciting than a live hockey game.

    A splendid choice. Whoever did this was very, very talented.
