Statue1

The A's All-Star promo statue on a dreary NYC afternoon. There are like 40 statues placed around the city for All Star game awareness, this is actually the closest to my home and the only statue I've seen. Underwhelming but I thought I'd post it anyway.

She is

It’s in a slipcover.
It would have been funny to hike the skirts up a little to reveal white shoes.

Don't blame me, I voted for Ice Cream

Nice call on the white shoes!

I don’t think that the NYC-based MLB or All Star planners put too much time into most of these statues, especially this one. I can’t figure out why it’s even placed here in front of a Chase bank…most of the statues seem to be in front of places of import.

10hrs too late

I was just about to post this when I saw yours, well I’ll just add my pictures.
It’s on the corner of 53rd & 3rd st I believe.

No White Shoes, but you can see a yellow sandal in the ^ bottom picture.

Not to nitpick, but for anyone visiting.

Too bad she's a righty.

AN should put our money together and buy it.

Drive it around to each stadium… take it to cookouts, tailgates, etc.
