Bruno and Bubba were tired of getting electrocuted by swiping the insides out of light-poles so they decided to pull one big heist and get out of the business. Police are unsure of their physical descriptions, but want people to look for the 'Godzilla-sized grocery cart' used to haul the statue away with. | ||

While they were at it, they also stole the gate to the water plant and the Belle Isle fountain. Two more shopping carts to look for. | ||

Ha Ha very funny, NOT although it might be a good idea to pump about 10KV into the statue to prevent unauthorized access  | ||

Remember when the giant footprints were painted from the Spirit of Detroit statue to the nekkid lady statue in front of the gas building? | ||

Hopefully, the thieves will return to the scene of the crime and this time abscond with The Fist. | ||

I don't understand why people have such a big problem with "The Fist"? I happen to like it more then the Spirit of Detroit. | ||
