GORILLA OF THE WEEK: PEEPING KONG
by Hazed
Residents of the quiet seaside town of Dawlish in south-west England are unhappy about a new feature of the local crazy golf course: a giant gorilla.
Gary the gorilla is a 7 foot tall fibreglass model with a very intense stare. When it was first erected it was facing some houses, and the owners were freaked out by the fact that Gary was staring through their windows. They have called the statue Peeping Kong.
Eager to help the locals, the owner of the golf course turned Gary around to face the other way. But that just meant the residents were presented with the site of his backside – and they weren’t happy about that either!
