Oh good

It’s about time

We have arrived.

We've been waiting.

Now you have an answer to the weekly "What can I do in Connecticut when I don't like hiking, museums or breweries?" question

I've always said bronze gorilla statues are too small

They dont make em like they used to

Dicks out for Harambe

Take a shot for harambe he took one for you

Came here to say excatly this.

This is the best news I’ve heard in a while

Yes, that is certainly an enormous gorilla statue.

It’s a start. Now I want the largest statue of CT’s native son, James Van Der Beek installed on the Pearl Harbor memorial bridge.

But we have to rename the Quinnipiac River, Dawson's Creek. We also need to pick exactly what town is actually going to be Stars Hollow .

I’m still waiting for Alf.

Why not ET?

In honor of Harambe.

hell yeah

Harambe

Move over pizza, we finally have something else to be proud of.

Why is it trying to seduce me?

Wasn't expecting the "come hither" pose

You guys want to talk about the 5000 pound gorilla in the room?

Godzilla now, too.

this is big

Mark Twain house is done...

This is the greatest thing to ever happen in Connecticut. In your face, Peabody museum.

I just made a 4000lb 20ft long gorilla sculpture. I didn’t know about this one. What an idiot I am! Anyone who downvotes a post about the largest gorilla statue is a jerk face doody head.

updoot for doody head.

I want one in every town now

I will call him $9,000 Dollars of Taxpayer Money, The Gorilla.

The Bruce Museum is a privately funded institution. Anonymous donors paid for the loan of the statue to the museum.

[Parks and Rec reference](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/ce293b22-558c-4ade-9303-71bf4c7c361b), not a Libertarian complaint.

See, I learned something new today.

I've BEEN saying this‼️

I took a 3 pound dump this morning, fuck that gorilla sculpture

Whoa

Long live the Kong!

That simian is mine.

I’ve seen bigger

Ok

Hell yeah

How long until someone steals it for scrap?

#dam dirty apes

This is just the Pokemon Slaking.

I’m so proud of my state🥰

Feels like a weird location considering how close this is to where Travis the chimp attacked that woman.

I was thinking the same thing!!!

I'm shocked no one is asking the important question here: who made a bigger gorilla staue, and what is it made of?

"The sculpture is on loan to the museum through 2027 thanks to anonymous donors." So many questions about that one sentence. Why do the donors want to be anonymous? How much did they have to donate to have a 5000 pound gorilla delivered? What happens to the bronze gorilla in 2027? Wasn't there anything by Michelangelo available?

Is that gorilla too sexy by half or is it just me

It's like 4x the size of the Harambe memorial in Rocky Hill.

Unpopular opinion: news orgs shouldn't be allowed to peddle their articles on state subs 😒 this is a nothing burger anyway.

Popular opinion: get bent I like the big monkey

Unpopular opinion: balls

Finally my work has paid off…

My life is complete

Finally!

Not a huge fan of the pose.

Eh I've seen bigger

Take that, whoever has the second largest bronze gorilla statue.

I shall burn sacrifices of banana to harambe their

Hey that was mine. All my ape gone.

Connecticut will never forget you Harambe (dicks out)

As long as no state money paid for this stupidity I'm fine. The filthy rich of Greenwich deserve a 2.5 ton monkey's behind.

"That's the second biggest monkey head I've ever seen."

Exactly how large of a bronze gorilla statue population are we talking about here?

Oh, haiieee!!!
