[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2991391, member: 56859"]:joyful::joyful: That was the most entertaining thing I've read in a long time! Awesome writeup, Z :D. Fun coin too :) It's a perpetual wish-list coin for me, and thanks to this writeup I suspect a bunch of people will be competing for future examples! The whizzing Herakles statue is a hoot. Guys, don't let this statue serve as permission to water the grass wherever you'd like :stop: ... At the same frat party, Priapus thought it would be funny to steal a waiter's tray and offer hors d'oeuvres to guests...
