Title supplied by Inventory cataloger.
The sculpture was designed for the 1991 NCAA-1AA Championship football game held at Georgia Southern University. It served as a stage platform for the half-time show and was assembled by Denny Clark, of Clark Ironworks. After the game, the sculpture was moved to a field adjacent to Clark Ironworks in Statesboro. It was moved again in March 1994 for security reasons, to a fenced locked area behind Paulsen Stadium on the Georgia Southern University campus. It is no longer fully assembled.
