- A snowman on Abbey Ave.
This snowman is big enough to use an orange traffic barrel as a hat. Well done.
Located in a yard on Abbey Ave, between West 19th and West 20th, this snowman recently popped up and we’re extremely impressed. It won’t be around forever, though, because it looks like gravity is starting to have its way. Check out our pictures below.
From the side, you can see its tilt:

Jimmy Haslam, is that you??
I saw just as big ones on East 130th North of Superior, on the edge of East Cleveland.
The one in my front yard is almost 8ft tall
these pictures don’t do it justice. That thing is WAY over 10 feet tall…it also used to not be tilted…
I have pictures of it before it tilted!
Yeah, I think that snowman collapsed while the photographer was driving away.
