You mean like this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dHPs_PzL_k (the first :15 says it all...)

But not like a certain cowboni thought to be native to the Potsdam area...

(Wish I could find a picture in it's natural habitat but a quick search of the 'net yields nothing.
I put out the challenge to find a picture of the Clarkson cowboni.)

I was thinking of Walt and the Chiefs bus.

Our Cowboni is better engineered than your ice resurfacer.

How can you tell a girl zamboni from a boy zamboni?

Thanks for the pic, Joe. Sharp paint job! Very Holstein and/or Guernsey. I thought I saw a picture years ago suggesting that Clarkson's Cowboni had a cowtail. Generally, dairy cows don't strike fear into the hearts of hockey players.

My first guess would have been that Byrne Dairy would have been the sponsor.

When I saw the link to the pics, I thought the meanest looking Zamboni was the crocodile-themed model. But the Potsdam climate is friendlier to cows than crocs...

They also seem to like to decorate toilets up there, at least the last time I drove through. Good thing they didn't choose that for a theme... ;)

There is a protester in town who puts toilets on his property. One in on Rt 11 across from the campus the other is in Rt 56 on the way North out of town.

There's a property owner downtown across from Stewart's who has a dozen or more on display ...can't help but wonder see if they get utilized during early morning drunk stumbles

Great hire. Good to see him back in the 518. Can't help but wonder if he was On our supposed search committee and/or an applicant for the job.

There seemed to be a lot more than that. Like, the whole town.

If I remember correctly, it's zoning issues. He wanted to build a convenience store in what's mostly residential and was turned down. So he started installing toilets on all the property he owns (and there do seem to be more of them).

Well, this Thread has certainly gone down the “toilet” :D
