ORLANDO, Florida - A drunken man in Orlando must have had his beergoggles on too tight when he stumbled out of the Eight
Seconds bar on Livingston Street and attacked a five
foot lizard statue. The amorous embrace snapped the
statue from its base which in turn sent both the
drinker and the lizard crashing to the ground. The
city reportedly has 60 of these huge lizard statues on
its streets as part of an arts project and are said to
cost approximately $3,800 a piece. Sergeant Scott Boos
described the man as being a little drunk and was
perhaps looking for a little lizard love. No charges
have been made against the man, however, city
authorities may seek money to repair the statue.
