World’s largest Shecky found in Central DC.

Had occasion to snap this picture of the Shecky Monument in Washington DC. My understanding is that the Shecky Monument never reached its planned completed height. In some form of altercation the Washington Monument Society, lead by architect Robert Mills complained that a fully realized Shecky would tower over the monument to the father of our country. The quarrel continued to escalate and fisticuffs were about to break out, when a round of rum-drinks was served and the entire membership of the Shecky Monument Committee acquiesced, stormed the bar and largely forgot what they were arguing about.
