95-Foot Popsicle Planned For Millennium Park

 

 

CHICAGO (WBBM) -- A Canadian artist will be painting with Zamboni and blow torch this winter as he brings a 95-foot long "Popsicle" to Millennium Park.

 

As part of the Chicago winter festival, Gordon Halloran has been commissioned to paint and sculpt a 95-foot long colored ice wall to reflect in the bean, as well as a flat painting of the Loop on the Millennium Park Ice Rink along Michigan Avenue.

Halloran's art exhibit is set to stand even if February is warm, the artist says. A "Lego system" of aluminum plates back-up the ice and when the system is turned it can create a su-zero temperature in minutes, thus preserving the exhibit if warm temperatures arrive.

 

And should frost dull the color -- Halloran will apply a blowtorch to gloss up the surface he's preemptively calling the Popsicle which opens February 1st in Millennium Park.

I triple-dog-dare you all to stick your tongues to it and see what happens.

Skipping the triple dare is a slight breach of etiquette. Skipping the dare, the double dare, and the double dog dare as well is downright gauche.

Lloyd: You're it.

Harry: You're it.

Lloyd: You're it, quitsies!

Harry: Anti-quitsies, you're it, quitsies, no anti-quitsies, no startsies!

Lloyd: You can't do that!

Harry: Can too!

Lloyd: Cannot, stamp it!

Harry: Can too, double stamp it, no erasies!

Lloyd: Cannot, triple stamp, no erasies, Touch blue make it true.

Harry: No, you can't do that... you can't triple stamp a double stamp, you can't triple stamp a double stamp! Lloyd!

 

Can't find money for the CTA (or any other program that has budget shortfalls), but can fund a f*cking popsicle? Yeah, that works.

Lloyd: I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this.

Harry: I was thinking the same thing.

Lloyd: That John Denver is full of $hit, man.
