You know what IT is. From Fayth aka the Relaxocat, of the NBC5 (Chicago) Street Team:
The Red Ball is exactly that, but it stands 15 feet high, has a weight of 250 pounds, and is constructed of inflated vinyl. Not your average red ball. It has been moved around within a number of cities in a number of countries, and in September it has been making guest appearances at locations around this city. Among some of the previous locations are Millennium Park, the Spertus Institute, and the Grant Park underpass. The next stop is Union Station at Jackson on Sept. 17th with other locations until the end of the month. My friend and I (thanks for the photo, Paula!) visited the Red Ball at LaSalle and Wacker, but unfortunately I couldn’t nudge it since it was wedged up against the top of the bridge.
The RBP continues to wind its way through the streets of Chicago; follow the meandering ball here.
What’s your Red Rubber Ball?!
