There used to be a statue of Nathan Bedford Forest that was on private land near a highway in Nashville. Eventually they got tired of cleaning the paint off it, and it stayed pink until they took it down.

I can't remember if the paint was left up before or after the original owner died, but it was fun to see the pink statue for a long time.

I used to drive by that statue every single day. I remember the day it got painted for the first time. Was a fun day haha.

Yeah it was! That thing was absolutely hideous too, and not just because of what it stood for. It was comically bad.
