Touchdown Jesus!

Jump to Comments

It’s the Second Coming of Touchdown Jesus! (The first is in South Bend.) The Big-J has risen near the interstate north of Cincinnati. Standing 62 feet high, with a 42-foot wing span between the hands, the Solid Rock Church’s dramatic statue of Jesus rises out of the ground on the eastern side of Interstate 75 in Monroe.

Some other ideas for Touchdown Jesus:

  • Build his feet sticking out of the ground on the other side of the highway.
  • Bengal’s Jesus!
  • Reds’ Jesus!
  • Clown Jesus!

  • Another great idea!

  • My wife and I thought it would be a hoot to take a large styrofoam ring and toss it around one of his hands….like a life preserver… Since he’s sticking out of the middle of a lake anyway. :)

  • I thought Jesus could walk on water?!?! Perhaps he’s not so good in mud.

  • “Thus sayeth the Lord: Woe unto thee that hinders freeway traffic for a graven image of me, for yea they be rubberneckers.”
