Hip High School Hippo

Foo had seen hippos before, but never one this big and fat and super shiny. Apparently this one, that he found out was named Bertha, was one of the Hungry Hungry varieties. Luckily she had just eaten lunch at the school she mascots so Foo was safe.

Tinkling the Ivories

Foo just couldn't resist the chance to play a little tune while in a music capital such as New Orleans! Sadly, the keys were a little too soft and it sounded like a sick hippo more than a piano...

Hipp-Hippo Hooray

Foo was excited when this hippopotamus, Harold, offered to let him go for a ride. But when Foo got into Harold's mouth as instructed, it was really, really moist and humid... kinda like the Houston weather. Harold turned out to not be the "Hungry, Hungry" variety of hippos, so after a jaunt to the waterhole, Foo went on his merry way.

Hippo Hardware

Foo loved these columns at a hardware store in Portland, Oregon. These hippos are a famous feature of this ferrateria that has been around for decades and is a hallmark of the Pacific Northwest.
