It's become the new concrete goose. I see these still up and wonder if folks bothered to consider where they were going to store them before buying

Im all for it leaving them up. Seeing a 15ft tall skeleton wearing a pride flag as a cape is a hoot and a half.

Concrete goose?

It was a trend for a short while in the suburbs. Keep a concrete goose in your front yard and dress it up accordingly to the holiday or season. Early 2000's I think?

I'm from the States as well but perhaps haven't driven around enough of the right suburbs.
