Over the next few months we will probably see photos of it on The Great Wall of China, sailing the Mediterranean Sea, outside Buck Palace etc.

THE Big Prawn is now sitting atop its new home at the West Ballina Bunnings Warehouse site

what happened to the prawns original spot?

When I was a kid there was a little servo that had a big pineapple or was it a big teepee, hmmm maybe it was both.....

They were little by todays standards but to a kid they seemed huge

It was a petrol station and the roads and highways have changed

They should have buried the ugly thing.

The big pineapple wasn't very big about the size of a cubby. It is still there I think

The prawn was approved for demolition by Ballina Shire Council in 2009, sparking the community into action to save the crustacean, including setting up a Facebook petition.

The prawn also featured on national and international television at the time - and more recently, was included in the print on Mambo boardshorts.

Bunnings then bought the site and announced it would keep the prawn. They moved it 100m.

hahaha, I hope they gave a fake address to avoid waking up to 157 armed police officers smashing through the door at 3:30am

Update:

THE removal of Bowen’s monster mango attraction has been revealed to be a stunt by .... a fast food chain.  

The ten-tonne, three-storey high mango was located this morning in the bushes behind the Bowen Tourist Information Centre – from where it disappeared early yesterday morning.

Bowen Tourism board chairman Paul McLaughlin had insisted they were not behind the big fruit’s disappearance, and it seems he was telling the truth – although he was in on the plan.

In a statement, chicken fastfood chain Nando’s said they promised to “take good care of the mango, and would return it to its rightful position soon(ish)”.

A spokesman said more would be revealed on Friday.

so senator nashs friends in the junkfood industry pinched it.
