Lion
Las Vegas, NV
This Lion statue was installed in front of the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in 1998. It is 45 feet tall. It replaced a larger, less realistic lion that functioned as the hotel's entrance when it opened in 1993. At least part of the reason for the replacement was because Asian tourists felt it was bad luck to enter the mouth of a lion. For more, see this website. [map]
