Ernie is devastated.

Those terrorist bastards.

Didn't they try duck tape?

they gave up due to cost overruns - the bill was overinflated

Awwwww, that is one big ducky

That will never fit in our bathtub again!

I can't get over that it's an 11 (eleven!) ton ducky.

I saw this when it was on the Correct Coast (San Pedro) last year. There was a two hour wait!

I can honestly say it wasn't all it was quacked up to be. They wanted $15 to enter the port to stand near it. Me? I stood in the parking lot, for free. I mean, you've seen one 11 ton rubber duck in your life, you've seen them all.
