Other fun facts about the statue:
-They also plan to use the statue as a defensive replacement for Matt Gamel in tight games
-Selig will be depicted wearing one of his trademark Men's Warehouse 3 button suits, but with his shirt untucked
-The statue will be concrete so as not to distract Prince Fielder, since bronze looks too much like chocolate wrapped in foil
-In the statue Bud will be depicted as 350 pounds, so as not to freak out any Brewers fans with his "emaciated 200 lb frame"
- There was debate as to whether it should be in the stadium or a local park, but they called it a tie and are putting it in the mIles of glorious revenue generating parking lots
-The statue will open the season in Japan, at night to reflect Bud's legacy.
-Additionally, when asking for a budget, the artist was told he could spend as much as he wanted
-If someone is bitten by a dog near the statue, the statue will always side with the owner
-When you pull his arms it will dispense beer and cheese respectively from Bud's mouth (I made that one up, that would be cool)
