Touchdown Jesus

So, 2 exits south of where I grew up there's a fairly large church that has caused a fairly large bit of controversy over the last several years with this fairly large statue.  Actually, let me restate that - it's a little bigger than fairly large ... it's 6 stories tall and sits on the side of Interstate 75 (one of the busiest roads in America). 

Affectionately named "Touchdown Jesus" or "Big Butter Jesus" by the locals - the statue has appeared in many photos over the years including the famous O-H-I-O photos for the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Needless to say, the locals have had a lot of fun with this rendition of Jesus :-)  Well, this past week during some very bad storms Touchdown Jesus was struck by lightening and quickly burnt ... leaving just the steel frame after the Plexiglas and Styrofoam burned away.

Now as a lasting tribute the Bob and Tom Morning Radio Show in Dayton put together this video of Touchdown/Big Butter Jesus...
