In Downtown Greenville SC they have mouse sized bronze mice placed about the area and you're supposed to see how many you can find. Gotta find them all, eh?
At one time we had many non traditional modern sculptures but those are being replaced by bronze statues of old people. We have always been ahead of the curve when it comes to conservatism but the recent wave of uber conservatism brought about by the rise of the Tea Party is the cause, in my not so humble opinion, of why modern wonders are no longer standing.
Please note, this is not always the case. They did get one of those cool moving metal wind sculptures that looks like it's changing shape. Yeah, one of the round ones.
