(UOK gets bonus points for using the word erected. That word still makes me laugh. Sorry.)

So last night I was thinking about the statue thing and I thought wouldn't it be hilarious to have a statue of Dave Wannstedt in the style of The Invisible Man from science class? Except this one is interactive. You can touch it and it'll say, "Aaaaaapppppp I've got a knee." "Aaaaaaaaaaapppppp I've got an elbow."

It'd be a hell of a lot different if the thread title was, "Status of Halas, Payton to be erect outside Soldier Field"

Wait until they erect a bronze bust. I’ll need smelling salts to wake up after passing out from that one.

Love the statue of Halas! I'm mixed on Payton. I think they probably had to be careful not to make it look too much like the Heisman Trophy. Ultimately, I'm just glad they put up a statue of him. He certainly deserved it.

The Payton statue looks not great. Looks like he's trying to sneak downstairs to catch Santa Claus.

Yeah, I'm not that impressed by the Payton one.

Same...he should be holding that ball high and tight...not dangling loose waiting for a fumble! Halas one is spot on though, they nailed that one.

The Payton one is awful. Oh well.
Where's one of Da Coach? I suggest this pose.

edit: saw a close up picture and the statue DOES have 34 and the logo on his helmet. Looked plain from far away.
