This is 100% true and the University of South Carolina now has a new golden Cock outside their stadium. I wonder who in the hell was on the committee and said let's donate 1 Million dollars to put up a new statue. I guess it was private donors and I don't really complain what people do with their money but this is pretty dumb. I guess they now have bragging rights to say they have the biggest Gamecock in the Country.
-Weighs 10 tons
-Cost $1 million
