Hi There!

Foo just loves when he runs into fun sculpture friends that greet him with a super smile and a wave. Reddington here was super kind and showed Foo where to go for even more adventures.

Gazing Everywhere

Foo got stars in his eyes when he came upon this Stargazer sculpture in Krutch Park. Too bad there were no stars out. He wanted to see how it worked.

Petal Poser

Foo was all abuzz with the opportunity to be like a bee on this gigantic flower! Unfortunately immediately after the photo, Foo went into a sneezing fit. Apparently the pollen, even when metal, was too much for him. No more bee time for Foo.

Cirque du Foo-leil

Foo was thrilled to see such fit folks getting their super stretch on so early in the morning so he joined right in! He thinks he gave them a run for their money.

Musical Wing

Foo just loved that this sculpture had a perfect place for him to sit. What he couldn't quite figure out was if it was built to represent music, birds or Nike. Whatever it was, Foo was glad that the artist just did it.

Snaky Ride

Wheeee.... Foo thought this snaky sculpture was super fun to ride, especially when it undulated and writhed. So fun!

Need a Big Shirt

Foo thought things were bigger in Texas, but apparently they have really big shirts in North Carolina that get really big wrinkles that need really bid irons. Foo's question was who would actually lift it?

Hootie You Do?

Driving along, Foo saw this really wacky sculpture and decided to stop on by to check it out.
As he walked underneath it, Foo found a gigantic guitar pick celebrating Hootie and the Blow Fish, apparently local boys. Ah Hootie... Foo only wants to be with you.

Exploding Fever

At first, Foo just thought this was a pretty abstract bird sculpture, but he's not the most perceptive so he took a closer look.
Apparently there was an steamer ship that broke down here, and unfortunately brought yellow fever to the town. Unlike other kinds of gifts, this was not so fun, causing 66 deaths. That wasn't cool.

Super Swoosh

Foo knows he should just do it, but these metal swooshes were going every which way so he wasn't sure which way he should go to do it.

Fire in the Hat

While wandering through the conservatory, Foo found this fiery spray of fun and decided it would look good as a hat.
But then he turned the corner and oooh fiesta!!!! Ay carumba! Now that's a hat with a party rolled all into one!

Roots of Heros

Foo was confused how this tiny tiny root could shield a church from 9/11 debris, especially since it was inside that church, but then he realized that it was just a replica of a larger sculpture that memorialized the real one outside.

Ride 'Em Red Boy

Foo puzzled over this sculpture for a few minutes before figuring out that it was a guy riding a horse. Too bad it looks like both were flattened by a train sometime back. New York apparently is quite magical!

Streetside Kickline

Everybody in New York City was so fond of dancing, even these big red and yellow metal people across the street and the pigeon on the ground. Foo wanted to join the pigeon in the dance, but the birdy flew away before the big finish.

Old Tour Guide

Foo found this chap looking off into the distance while he was walking down the street. Foo asked him for directions, since clearly he could see very very far in the distance, but the man was extremely fixated on something. Foo tried to find it, too, but at last gave up and continued on his way.

Canoe Tell Me Why?

Foo wasn't certain why someone had crashed all of these canoes together. He heard it was art, but maybe it was just an accident. Some tidal wave from the lake!

Foo Gets a Newhart

Foo was just wandering around Navy Pier when he came across this nifty guy just sitting on this not-so-comfy metal chair. Foo decided to see what all the fuss was about and sat on the couch next to him.
That's when he realized it was the famous Bob Newhart! Foo was so excited, he started telling Bob all about his life and his adventures all over the place.
At one point Foo got so excited, he jumped from the couch over to Bob's chair. Bob was a little nervous at first, not sure if Foo was friend or foe.
But eventually, Bob saw that Foo was just there to have fun and enjoy his time in Chicago. They ended up snuggling and cuddling like old friends, and Foo even got this souvenir photograph!

Woodbob Squarepants

Foo couldn't resist getting a photo with his good friend Spongebob even though Foo was concerned that he might be marked for death seeing as this other gentleman was hovering nearby.

In the Jungle

The mighty jungle, the Foo Dog jumped on the back on this lion. And actually the lion didn't mind, probably because the lion had enough grass to munch on an share with Foo!

Now That's Handy!

But it's not all that useful. Still, who wouldn't want the sculpture or a giant hand in their yard? Think it might be missing a finger, though. Maybe it's a muppet tree hand... Whoa!
