Disney basically asked Phil Collins to write songs for a movie about a baby who loses his family and is raised by gorillas.
He responded with one of the greatest animated soundtracks ever made: TARZAN (1999).
The Pease Park troll cost about $300,000 to build, funded by private donors who wanted to create something magical for Austin.
And now it sits burned down. A pile of ashes surrounded by caution tape.
A giant wooden troll where kids laughed, families took photos, and people stopped for a moment to enjoy something whimsical in the middle of the city… gone.
It’s hard not to feel like this is symbolic of something bigger. We build beautiful things in Austin, and somehow we keep finding them destroyed.
Sometimes it really feels like we just can’t have nice things anymore. #atxcouncil
That’ll do it on an unbelievable @TexasWBB season, not the result we wanted but the future of women’s basketball at Texas is bright, thank you to our seniors.
Longhorns forever 🤘🧡
