    What are they doing to King Kong's Gravesite?

    Huh?

    I think they're knocking it down... There's a bulldozer up there pushing off huge hunks of the hill.

    I read they are knocking it down...I thought all the proposals for the new site said they would keep the hill there. I'm bummed about that.

    I have never heard it called that. Rhino read me an article about it. Apparently they are building one of those super malls. Its going to be the second largest in the US. Thats including all the restuarants and crap around it.

    I don't care what they put in there as long as they put in a SUPER TARGET!

    Did you ever hear the story about the soldiers that were taking target practice into that hill and a Tornando came through and killed a couple of them and injured some. That coming from my dad who has a BS in BS!

    I do, and it p1sses me off they're leveling it, but not everyone shares my regard for the sanctity of historic sites.

    I still liked the idea that V Youritzin had - place an enormous sculpture up there of a teed up football!

    We have never won a National Title in football since they tore down King Kong's grave.
