Okeedokee…
I think we warned you that this event was going to get weird before it was over. And, this isn’t even the half of it.
The Squid and Sailor go with the rest of the animal-based items like Shamu and Bubbles the Chimp. And, because we don’t have any more land awarded around the original “Zoo Zone,” you are likely (like me) going to have to find a place to put your “Aquatic Related Clutter” far away from the rest of your Zoo enclosure.
But, it is…as they say…what it is.
Here are the details for Prize One in Act II…
the “Squid and the Sailor.”
So, when I hear “Squid and Sailor” it sounds like some sort of New England pub, or an ancient sea shanty…
“Oh the Squid, the Squid, is an inky old soul…
he likes to dance at the end of a pole…
the sailor and he are the truest of friends…
until he is brought to an inky end!”
OK…so maybe not fit for kids.
Oh…and for anyone wondering what that rather phallic thing is that is pointing at the sailor in the main prize graphic, it’s called a “Mantle.” (See illustration below).
So, any further discussion about what it may or may not look like (according to the clearly sophomoric animators) will not be entertained.
