Am I mistaken or is this Michigan Tech?

[–]a_point_to_be_made 32 points33 points ago

Nope, you're right. That's the Delta Sig statue at the corner of College and MacInnes. For those who don't know, this is Winter Carnival.

[–]pansecho 5 points6 points ago

The pre 70s designs are usually much better than the more recent ones. Even the "all-nighter," statues were kick ass; much better than any of the sorority statues that take about a month that I've seen in the past three years.

[–]a_point_to_be_made 16 points17 points ago

Well, I mean to be fair, like the past few winters have been pretty shitty and warm.

[–]NoBrakes58 6 points7 points ago

This winter even included a few days of building bans.

[–]pansecho 0 points1 point ago

Just making a generalization from what I've seen from yearbook photos from some time in the 30s up until what I've seen in person. This winter's freeze was really disappointing though, you are right.

[–]belak51 5 points6 points ago

That being said, there are still some pretty impressive ones, like from when the theme was books 2 years ago. Jurassic Park, The Hobbit, and Harry Potter were some of the really impressive ones.

[–]pansecho 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, those, TKEs, Phi Tau and Delt Sigs, are the only ones really worth writing home about though. It seemed like several decades ago, there were more groups/ organizations that were up to that standard.

[–]tnv123 2 points3 points ago

I think the main issue, at least recently, has been that school is starting a week later than usual, meaning winter vacation is delayed a week. Tech didn't want to change the traditional date of winter carnival, though, so we've lost a week that we would've normally had to work on statues.

[–]McBurger 1 point2 points ago

Wishing for pics or an acceptance letter + time machine

[–]serpentcroissant 0 points1 point ago

I only remember seeing the Jurassic park one.

[–]mec919 2 points3 points ago

Loved Winter Carnival when I was there in 2008. Keweenaw <3

[–]FaithfulGropaga 1 point2 points ago

At Carnegie Mellon, we do a Spring Carnival. This year, I helped build a two story Spongebob Themed house.

[–]yangar -1 points0 points ago

Great to be an Ep!

[–]Kong_Here 10 points11 points ago

Yup. Where the men are MEN and so are the women.

[–]stootboot 5 points6 points ago

[–]Thenre 4 points5 points ago

YES GO HUSKIES! Graduated last year.

[–]fairwayks 1 point2 points ago

Snow way!

[–]mtupyro 1 point2 points ago

Good eye.

[–]Preblegorillaman 0 points1 point ago

It's tech, I was there for this.

[–]Itbedenapo 48 points49 points ago

Spongebob finally got his license?

[–]OhMaaGodAmSoFatttttt 1 point2 points ago

Ms Puff must be so relieved!

[–]DivinePotatoe 33 points34 points ago

To build that kind of thing you need to use the technique. Technique! Technique! Technique!

[–]lockwolf 32 points33 points ago

Stop on your right foot, DON'T FORGET IT!

[–]BerenCamlost 23 points24 points ago

Now it's time to bring it around town. Bring it around town.

[–]DIP_MY_BALLS_IN_IT 14 points15 points ago

You forgot to double take three times

[–]SamuraiMorshu 11 points12 points ago

Aaaaaaaaaaand, PELVIC THRUST!

wooooo!

woooooooo!!

[–]overmasterfulness 32 points33 points ago

I made this...With SAND! http://i.imgur.com/S2fyl.jpg

[–]A_Zed_Head 11 points12 points ago

Just came here to represent Michigan Tech. Winter Carnival is amazing! You guys should see the "All nighter" snow statues too! It's amazing how quickly some people are able to build things that are this sweet.

[–]ZenofJen 9 points10 points ago

Woohoo Tech! Winter Carnival rocks! I miss living in the UP.

[–]STRAIGHT_BENDIN 6 points7 points ago

Michigan Tech!! Wooo! I love this school!! God man, winter carni is a fucking blast!! This same fraternity (Delt Sig) had a really good statue this year too. They made four full scale cars out of ice and snow. Crazy.

[–]Trey_III 7 points8 points ago

Graduate of Michigan tech here. 2007. The snow statutes of winter carnival are amazing. Lots of talent go into some of those!!!

[–]I_have_no_username 4 points5 points ago

In the dead silience of 3:00 AM on a Tuesday, stand there and shout, "Who lives in a pineapple under the sea??? I SAID, WHO! LIVES! IN! A! PINEAPPLE! UNDER! THE! SEA!!!!!???"

[–]derekdanger 1 point2 points ago

i can't hear you!

[–]alienufosarereal 5 points6 points ago

I would love a spongebob theme park. And the Krabby Patty would be run by an In-n-Out

Given the time it took you to get the link and format it, was it worth it to not just write "That's awesome" as a comment?

[–]devilsavacadolarry 2 points3 points ago

I wish they made some of Calvin's snow "figures"

[–]IloveWonderflonium 2 points3 points ago

Another group, also at Michigan Tech, did just that

[–]fireinthesky7 1 point2 points ago

I don't care. We're not having an anatomically correct snowman in the front yard.

[–]SwiftToStreetlight 1 point2 points ago

Yet they didn't build the easiest structure, Patrick's house.

[–]earthwormjim22 2 points3 points ago

This must be fake. Spongebob cant drive!

[–]scarlet-agate 2 points3 points ago

Ah Michigan Tech, it's been so long. I miss Winter Carnival. On a different note, I wonder if K-day will be nice this year or if everything will be dry and crispy.

[–]whip_the_manatee 0 points1 point ago

Or a dream. A beautiful, beautiful dream... :'-)

[–]Soundmantom 0 points1 point ago

Ok who else saw the people at the bottom and immediatly thought mystery science theatre?

[–]artg1291 -1 points0 points ago

squid wards house looks like big eyed Ernie a lil...

[–]Jasperbitchpuddin 1 point2 points ago

Pssh, I did this all the time as a kid. Well, it was usually just Patrick's house... Minus the antenna

[–]PhreaksChinstrap 0 points1 point ago

I guess they had a bit of fuck you this is awesome.

[–]Grave367 1 point2 points ago

Totally Michigan Tech.

[–]a1rhead 0 points1 point ago

TIME WELL SPENT!

[–]stereotypeless 0 points1 point ago

Alright that is epic, this deserves to upvotes, one for the pineapple and squidwards house.

[–]stiff77 0 points1 point ago

Who lives in a pineapple made out of snow? Ice-cuuuuube bluuuue-nuuuuuts

[–]MetroidDan 1 point2 points ago

Immediately recognized this as Michigan Tech. With my last year coming up, I'm really hoping we get a good winter so Winter Carnival can display some good statues.

[–]Akuadarkwa 0 points1 point ago

Sir, i beloeve you meant to say that they had a lot of spare time on their hands.

[–]sildo 0 points1 point ago

Where I'm from snow sculptures are a pretty common thing during winter. We have local artists that almost solely do snow sculptures and we host international competition.

[–]CharlesCampbell 0 points1 point ago

Why is Spongebob driving, he does't have a license

[–]tubsum122 0 points1 point ago

I don't know what you're talking about.

[–]zmeace 0 points1 point ago

Am i mistaken or is Spongebob driving a boat without a license?

[–]StevieBoySwag 1 point2 points ago

this picture is fake, everyone knows spongebob can't drive

[–]Isaiah711 0 points1 point ago

It would be real dick move if the sun came out :l

[–]walkinthecow 1 point2 points ago

Ahhhh. Michigan in winter! look at that beautiful sky and the barren trees! Seriously.I hate this summer so much!

[–]cabt24 0 points1 point ago

Since when did sponge bob get his license?!

[–]macktruck1991 1 point2 points ago

its not amazing until you realize that these statues are usually all made under heavy influence of alchohol!

[–]JWang524 0 points1 point ago

As a Texan, I must ask, what is that mystical white dirt you have there?

[–]veasse 0 points1 point ago

WHHHHOOOOO lives in a pineapple under the snow...

[–]PolarBearZombie 0 points1 point ago

Why the fuck is Spongbob in a car?

[–]ceeeh 0 points1 point ago

cubist Bert on the left?

[–]Stripedcheese 0 points1 point ago

A bit?? You call having enough time to create the SpongeBob houses a bit???

[–]Baron_Von_D 0 points1 point ago

When did spongebob get his license

[–]dey_tuk_er_jab 0 points1 point ago

Silly people. Spongebob doesn't have his boater's license yet!

[–]Waviaerith 0 points1 point ago

<3 Tech

[–]kr1nge 0 points1 point ago

I'd say they had a bit of square time.

[–]DIARRHEA_SCENTED_AIR 0 points1 point ago

I wish we had this much sand where I live

[–]kmccririe 0 points1 point ago

Obvious fake. Spongebob does not have his drivers license.

Chipmunk Video Syndrome (CVS) is a youtube disease only topped by VVS. Say no to CVS.

[–]eavrana 0 points1 point ago

YAAA reppin' tech

[–]ExtraCrispyChicken 0 points1 point ago

I said to myself, "This looks like Tech!" ... and the comments confirm it. This past year was so bad because it was so warm. That Jurassic Park statue a few years ago was amazing. Stop making me miss the Yoop.

[–]angg56 0 points1 point ago

Not enough to get it right! The Krusty Krab is shown to be to the left of Spongebob's house because when he leaves to go to work he turns left!

[–]theytooktomallen 2 points3 points ago

Historical accuracy. Good point.

[–]biddinbandit 2 points3 points ago

He actually turns to the right, from a first person point of view. The only two things to the left of his house are sandy's dome and rock bottom.

[–]Errday_Im_Hylian 1 point2 points ago

What the fuck are you talking about?

[–]angg56 1 point2 points ago

Spongebob. The direction he walks to work. A conspiracy that runs so deep it may have even started next door. This summer Spongebob must deal with his problem with turning right.

[–]ThatSweatyNerd 5 points6 points ago

he turns right because he passes Squidward and Patrick's homes. Get your facts right

[–]angg56 0 points1 point ago

But Squidward and Patrick live distinctly left of spongebobs house, wait, left from the viewers POV.

Couldn't find the actual one, and I just watched an entire episode in five minutes. Win-win in my book.
