Friday Fun Link – Moose Jaw Engages In A Battle of the “Meese”

In a province where we take pride in our large roadside attractions, Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan has long prided itself on having the world’s largest moose.

Except that a few years ago, those dirty bastard Norwegians have raised the ante(lers) by erecting a moose statue that is Max the Moose (by 31 cm) compared to Moose Jaw’s Mac the Moose.

Moose Jaw suffered this grand indignity for a few years but now the issue has risen again and, drawing international attention, Moose Jaw’s politicians and citizens are investigating ways to regain the crown.

 

 

(Shockingly, given Saskatchewan’s reputation for hunting, the idea to simply go and shoot Norway’s moose has not been proposed as far as I know!) 😉
