Well I absolutely loved Captain Cook and was sorry to see him go. Now Cairns can continue in its goal, which is to look the same as any other Australian whatever.
I feel like the world's tallest bin might lose out this round, which really is a damn shame since it's so absolutely shit in both idea and design ❤️❤️
…AN ODE IN PRAISE OF THE CAPTAIN COOK STATUE
…
WHO SAYS WE DON’T HAVE HISTORY AND CULTURE?
…
For fifty asphalt bordered years,
Ten metres of low grade concrete
Crumbled in a tropical rain
Scented with salt and diesel fumes.
A pallid blob of civic pride
Only held together by
Layers of hurriedly applied
Cut price and flaking paint.
A masterpiece, it flipping aint.
…
Icon of Terra Nullius.
High above his skinny white thighs
A pair of puzzled vacant eyes
Gazed past a weird, fascist salute
Made by his empty, grasping hand…
Long, long gone, his memory clings,
To this damaged and stolen land;
‘Cos in between the strip of tar
And closed motel that bear his name
Stood this symbol of his fame...
…

It has to be the Spud. It LOOKS like a shit, so it's obviously the shittest big thing.
Glad that Potato Shit thing is still hanging in there - like the big Arse Dag it is!

The worst of these would have to be ' The Tallest Bin'
Captain Cook has been removed
The worst 'Big' that we have seen is The Tallest Bin in Kalgoorlie
Sorry Kalgoorlie but you are a great town. Well worth visiting
Nothing in Australia could be more shit than the big potato, which looks more like a big shit than a potato! We have a winner!
