As an aside, you wouldn't believe the controversy in Kansas City when about ten of these were placed around the art gallery. I always found them whimsical as they were set at all angles just the same as if some giants had just finished a game and wondered off.

I spent some time wondering why the shuttlecock was hanging there and what was it's significance before I considered that it might be in the background and much larger than the real thing.
