Tigers
Detroit, MI
These Tigers are located at Comerica Park, the stadium of the Detroit Tigers baseball team. The sculptures were designed/created by Michael Keropian for the new stadium which opened in 2000. There are nine tigers are at ballpark's entrances. The largest one at ground level is 15 feet tall while a couple on the roof are 30 feet long. The pillars are incised with tiger scratch marks and tiger heads with baseballs in their mouths. There are also two 80-foot-tall baseball bats. For more, see this website. [map]

The tiger is the school's mascot. 100 of these statues were built and installed in different locations with unique paint jobs. This one, named Butterscotch, was painted by Steven Harper. Most, if not all, of these statues remain. For more, see this website.
