I believe Leon mentioned that he had him in quarantine, or so not to offend the French by using their word, sparkling isolation. He can speak best to this, but I thought there was mention of reholdering him or getting another copy entombed and using that replacement.

I was the first to get to take Large Ass on a vacation nine years ago. Here is my favorite picture I took of my then 4 year old saluting at the Korean War Memorial. My son is now nearly 14 and has a mustache!

+1...He was reholderd not too long ago.

As everyone can see he is in a protected quarantine status....But he is safe and sound and has no symptoms of Corona as of now.

Looks like I need to do something about my photo hosting situation.

What kind of holder is that? And who gets him next?

Now that Large Ass has been found where the hell is the Chase Trophy for the NCAA bracket winner? That thing changed hands for a number of years and was supposed to come to me but the previous year's winner never sent it, I asked him to forward it to the following year winner, but I don't think he ever sent it.
