T. Rex in Troy
Yep, the hip is made of out of the Millenium Falcon.
We saw this dinosaur sculpture in Troy the other day and it made us smile (a bigger version of the pic). The sculpture overlooks the Hudson from a hilltop in Riverfront Park.
As far as we can tell, the piece is part of a series of recycled sculptures around the city. The series is organized by the same people behind Trashion.

Saw this the other day, too. Ironic (and maybe a little fitting) that this is where they handed out DINOSAUR bbq?
