Phanatics everywhere... GIANT Phanatics statue!

Everyone's favorite green mascot from the Philadelphia Phillies was recently created in LARGE proportions! There are 20 Giant Phanatics placed in and around Philadelphia, and each one is painted by a different local artist for "Phanatic Around Town" a photo contest that the MLB orgination is holding! These statues are six-foot tall, weigh 100lbs, stand on an aluminum base shaped like home plate, and are made of fiberglass. These will be up on display all summer long. Since the locations include fun spots like Please Touch Museum®, The Franklin Institute and the Comcast Center, "Phanatic Around Town" gives fans a great way to tour the city. After the 2010 season, the Phanatics will be auctioned off by the Phillies, with net proceeds going to Phillies Charities. these are really cool statues, and just seeing them makes me wish I could get ahold of one to customize!
