The Leo Chaney Statue Design Contest

Allen Gwinn  2007-06-12 07:03     

Dallas City Council Member Leo Chaney has decided to take civic narcissism to a new level. Chaney has proposed that taxpayers build a 10 foot monument to him in the city's new Opportunity Park (DMN Link | Sarah Dodd, May 2006).

In the spirit of trying to be helpful to Chaney, Dallas.Org has commissioned Help Leo Build A Statue Of Himself contest. The winner will walk away with $11.73!

Mike Orren of Pegasus News kicks off the contest! Our entries will be coming today.

Dallas.Org's First Entry:

Leo's Pot O Gold

Well, not quite so impressive

To be fair, that was our homepage lead yesterday. So it was already in the can. Not sure who did it, but I'll give credit once the appropriate staffer fesses' up.
[Ed Note: Yes, we have to have names :) Once done, nobody can wiggle their way out of this one! Somebody get Wilonsky in on this. He's pretty good with Photoshop!]

I am more than happy to admit that I was responsible for creating the Leo-Chaney-on-horseback photo. (That's Napoleon Bonaparte beneath the oversized Chaney head.)

[Ed Note: We've received 3 other entries--none of which we can post :) ]
