So with just two days to go, it had to be time for our first World Cup post… This monstrosity is made from 2500 Coca-Cola crates and stands proudly in Newton, Johannesburg.
He is being called a ‘fan man’ or “Cratefan”‘, and will watch over one of South Africa’s larger fan parks for the World Cup. He weighs a massive 25 tonnes, and stands 16.5 metres tall so just hope you don’t end up in the row behind him…
All the crates are of course original Coca-Cola crates, meaning the sculpture has no environmental impact, and all the materials will either be re-used or recycled once the competition is over.
