Snow-woman scandal


 

Crystal Lynn didn’t see any problem with the snow-woman she’d made that snowy afternoon in Kent, Ohio. She says she “just wanted to play in the snow.” A few minutes after the snow-woman was completed, the law arrived at Lynn’s front door. They’d received an anonymous call about an “inappropriate snow figure.” The snow-woman had snow-breasts, and someone wanted them gone.

The breasts in question were no more detailed than mannequin breasts, back before mannequins had nipples. Still, they offended someone. Fearing arrest, and not wanting to cut the breasts off, Lynn draped a tablecloth over her creation. “She looked really good,” Lynn said, “like she was getting ready to go to a party.”
