Homeowners who decorate their yards with life-sized plastic deer are complaining the sculptures are being damaged by those stalking real deer during Duluth's special season for bowhunters.
"My decorative doe, Felicity, had an arrow sticking out of her hind quarter," Orval Pussywillow of Hunter's Park complained yesterday. "This has got to stop. We paid good money for our beautiful deer." Pussywillow said his four plastic pink flamingos and a lawn ornament depicting the posterior of a fat woman bending over were unmolested.

Because it's funny? (The first dozen or so time you see it, anyway)
Personally, I would like to live in a place where the greatest concern of the day is getting an arrow in the posterior of a fake plastic deer. And it sounds to me as though Orval would be a right nice neighbor and Mr. Waxwing and Ms. Twelvetrees would suit me just fine as citize leaders, thank you very much. Beats traffic, drugs and looters, for a start. Where is this town, anyway?
Cupid, lend me your bow
May I ask why one would put a painted piece of plywood depicting a woman bending over in a garden?
My wife says they're kinda cute. Reminds her of her grandma in the yard, only her grandma had garters with her stockings rolled to just below her knees. No, we do not have one in our yard. Don't ask.
"Make my day, punk"
ROTLMAO
Do you feel lucky?
Thanks. I think a plastic deer with an arrow in his butt is funnier....but that's just me. Ya think if we made some plywood cutouts of women in thong bikinis bending over we could make some money? Less material and I have the tools. Need a painter though. LOL
I live in a town that has a 3 day "Pork Festival"
We have our share of large bottoms bending over flowerbeds. Unfortunately, they're real.
You hire the painter, I'll hire the model.
Well, at least they aren't driving down mainstreet during hunting season proudly showing off the gutted horse tied to the top of their car!
Nice Heather you have growing there...
A painter, and several models...
Tongue in Cheek or a lefty taking a shot at FOXNEWS!!
Thanks! That was the cutest thing I've read all day. Sending this one on to Mom. She has a ceramic Goose on her front porch, and she dresses it in different "costumes" for the season.
Right now it's dressed in Blaze Orange and even has a to-scale rifle, LOL! I'd have her committed, but then that would mean I would inherit "Lucy Goosey" and I'd have to dress it. *Rolleyes*
Is she a FReeper?
cool. sounds like she has a sense of humor. wish we could have bow hunts in the Twin Cities metro area.the deer are nearly as numerous as the tree rats.
Are you kidding? I'd never invite my mother here, LOL! She is a Reagan-loving Conservative, though. ;)
GOOD! I was afraid she was someone I knew...
I do NOT want to see a picture of this guys front yard! The description is terrifying enough!
