Topic: King Wally turns blue!

Wish I'd had a camera...

Prank leaves King Wally's statue blue
A statue of former Queensland State of Origin captain Wally Lewis, which sits outside Brisbane's Lang Park stadium, was spray-painted blue overnight.

Police said the bronze statue had also been dressed in blues shorts and a blue jersey.

The statue has since been cleaned ahead of tonight's second State of Origin match.

Former Origin player and Queensland media manager Ben Ikin saw the funny side of the situation, but described the prank as disrespectful.

"I reckon it's funny, but still it's a disgrace to the Queenslanders," he said.

"Poor old Wally was sitting up there - oh probably three hours ago, beautiful, bronze gold, whatever you want to call it - and unfortunately at the moment, there's three Suncorp Stadium staff scrubbing furiously because he's covered in blue paint."

Ikin said it took some serious scrubbing to remove the enamel paint.

"They had a bit of trouble around his nether regions there - he had a few wrinkles in his shorts - it's hard to get into," he said.

"It might have been disrespectful - but not totally disrespectful - they did a good job.

"All the detectives will be out here later in the day and once news filters back to the Queensland camp - after they stop laughing - I'm sure it's going to serve to fire up the boys for tonight's clash."

Police said they would not investigate the vandalism unless asked to do so by the stadium's management.

If you bothered to read the link, Ben, you would have noticed that they had actually cleaned it off.

They said the paint was still wet and attempts were being made to clean the statue ahead of tonight's second State of Origin match.
I didn't think that was necessary.

I heard urination is an effective way for paint removal.

Disrespectful?
Suck my left nut, he didn't do s***, make statues of all the people doing missionary/humanitarian work unpaid etc. and pissing on their statute would be disrespectful.
Just like all the other twats who get knighted or doctorates and s*** for just being a singing poof or a swimmer and so on don't command any more 'respect' than you or I.

I think I might go make a statue of trog and stick it in the middle of a park somewhere, we've all probably done more for the community (outside of maybe donating ludicrous amounts of money we don't actually have, therefore not even comparable) than half these c***s.

Don't missionaries just kill and torture filthy heathens till they convert to christianity? Why make statues of them? And why should any one make statues of people who eat other people? You're a sick f*** loki!
