Snow Day January 7, 2011: Giant Snowman 2011-01-08 - Photo submitted by Brandon Cooper. Glory Lane, Columbia, KYTopping last year's record tall snowman by 5 inches - maybe half a foot - is this giant constructed by Brandon Cooper, left and Dallas Fair. The giant snowman is visible from Campbellsville RD, at about the 1100 block. A marker to watch for the snowman is the big yellow building in the background, Day and Day Feed and Pet, 1099 Campbellsville RD. The sculptors had to use a picnic table and stand tippy-toe to put the hat on the Snow Giant's head and to add facial features. The construction is pretty solid, they built "George," the name they given him, last night. They had planned to go for the world's record, but are a little shy of the latest contender, a 122 foot one in Maine. See Topping 122 Feet, Snowman in Maine Vies for World Record. But the Mainers used a crane. Permalink | Comments?
