This year for the first time, the Man was built at the DPW Ranch
in Nevada and only shipped 12 miles. More innovations this year.
The man will stand atop a 30-foot pedestal called the Temple of
Wisdom. Some have nicknamed it "the Bowling Trophy."
It
was exciting to be one of the people grabbing onto the Man and helping it off the truck —
sorta like pall bearers.
