No, this isn’t a scene from a dystopian toy melodrama where FAO Schwarz comes back from the dead and unleashes his deep collection of rubber playthings upon the metropolises of America. It’s an actual scene from Toledo, Ohio the other day when a giant inflatable ball from the city’s art museum got taken away with a stiff wind and out of the clutches of its handlers.
As you can see, it rolled a bit down the street. It’s called Kurt Perschke’s RedBall Project and its apparently traveled the globe. The sphere itself weighs approximately 250 pounds.
