S--t Fountain Chicago, Illinois - The S--t Fountain

I am a local in the Chicago area, and while passing through a West Side neighborhood, I came across a unique fountain, with the name "S--t Fountain" on the side. The fountain was apparently created by a resident who got tired of dogs crapping and nobody cleaning it up, so he built a monument to it.

The fountain serves water, that comes out of the turd, which is a bronze replica of actual dog crap. [Rick Jaymz, 08/04/2009]
