Anyone have $4k to drop on a goofy pit?

The ad says it was on extreme home make over. I cannot think of a reason that I would ever want something like that.

If I were a Wall Street banker,that would be in my backyard!!! I am not so,no interest at all.

The original intent was not to hide a grill. I'm thinking that thing hid something else in it when crossing the border.

Apparently the bull was hungry, ate the grill and the owner wanted it back.

It looks like a brazen bull.

If all the metal used to make the bull went into the actual pit you might have something. That pit looks rather small and cramped, especially for the amount of yard space that takes up.

So many questions about how that thing works. How do you get to the firebox? Does that lid rotate back so you can acess the whole thing? How does the smoke escape? If the smoke comes out of the bull's nose then it might be worth the price. If not that's a missed opportunity.

Here's an old thread about that thing.

Sorry Jeremy, I didn't mean to shock or offend anybody, I just noticed a resemblance.

Pffft!

No reason to apologize, look at it this way. I have a self imposed rule that I have to learn something new every day, you helped me reach my goal that day

I've always wanted a grill stuffed inside a lawn ornament ;-)

I'm holding out for one built inside of a big pink flamingo. If I'm doing tacky, I'm doing it in spades.

The only way it would be worth that kind of dough would be to remove the grill, patch the hole, and sell it as a sculpture. People pay top $$$ for art.
