The Leo Chaney Statue Design Contest
Allen Gwinn 2007-06-12 07:03 City of Dallas
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. Click on READ MORE to see them all. From Pegasus News' Mike Orren: Dallas.Org's First Entry:

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. leo chaney statue

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 :) ] |
