One of the articles that gets the most view on this blog is called Hell is Real, which doesn’t reflect my religious values as much as it does show some rather interesting roadway viewing near my hometown of Cincinnati.
I suspect that what folks are searching for are pictures of Touchdown Jesus, pictured below:
You can find that statue, also known as Butter Jesus, just north of Cincinnati, near Exit 29 on the east side of the freeway.
But Touchdown Jesus can also be found in a more appropriate location than near the side of the freeway. How about the a mural on the library outside the football stadium at Notre Dame?
I would be remiss if I didn’t include a YouTube video by comedian Heywood Banks about that same Big Butter Jesus.

LOL. As you know, my Middle Son goes to Loyola University New Orleans. They have a Touchdown Jesus too! There’s a pic in the lower right here: http://apply.loyno.edu/

Oops. It’s a rotating pic so… no good link. Their Touchdown Jesus survived Katrina just fine.

We also call it bathing Jesus and I want someone to hold a rubber duck ragada in His pond.

A rubber duck regatta, Rose? Just like they hold on the Ohio River during Riverfest? That one is a fund raiser. Maybe you should drop by the church there and suggest it.
