Good News, Detroit! Your 11ft Robocop Statue is Finally Complete.
Okay, I have to be real here...when I first saw this headline I was SURE it was an Onion article. After all, discovering that Detroit finally has a long awaited, long anticipated Robocop statue sounds made up. At least to this former Floridian.
It is, in fact, a real story that I found on Metrotimes.com. Now, as someone who is brand new to Michigan I hope you can understand why I've never heard of this. After all, most days my news feed was filled with dumb Floridians doing dumb Floridian things. However, just in case some of my fellow Michiganders were unaware of this dedication to a popular film character, here's how this all started and why it took so long to complete.
