I don't know who approved this but it's not even close.........
“I think it looks like a monster. That is just my opinion,” said the campaign’s organizer—a Jamestown man who wishes to remain anonymous, presumably so when the Lucy statue comes alive at dusk to devour its enemies, it can’t find him. “When you see it at night, it is frightening.”
That man insists the statue should be replaced by another one that honors Ball’s “stunning beauty,” thus displaying the exact sort of sinful lust that it was created to warn him against. Still, it’s not so easy: Poulin has refused to even comment on his creation, wisely avoiding its revenge, while the Celoron mayor has said it would cost between $8,000 and $10,000 to have the statue recast. A fund has been set up to raise the money, though it’s unclear who among the people of Celoron would be brave enough to put their hand that close to Lucy’s mouth. Legend has it that all but the most virtuous will come away with nothing but a bloody stump and lots of ’splainin to do.
