Description
There's a new frog in town! Earlier in 2013, Texas Christian University unveiled a statue of its mascot, the Horned Frog, that is now in front of Amon G. Carter Stadium (the football stadium). The statue depicts the thorny creature prowling with its belly scraping across a big slab of rock. As one website put it: It does not appear to be amused. Other statements about the statue are equally quotable "The statue might be guarding the front gate more than inviting people in. This isn't exactly Harry Caray welcoming folks to Wrigley Field." Most stadiums have statues of players or coaches, preferably someone famous or who has won some famous awards. But not here! At least, unlike a real horned frog, it doesn't squirt blood from its eyes. Check out this video if you don't believe it! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/11/10/lizard-shoots-blood-out-o_n_773702.html
