Mural Monday

What does a unicorn have to do with football, vollyball and soccer? 
 
The light inside the Pepperoni's Pizaa place looks like a horn, but it's a WarHorse which is the mascot of our local high school. They've been doing pretty well in sports lately!

Linking with  Monday Murals at COLORFULWORLD. And at Tom the Backroads Traveller's Monday Murals.

Today's quote:

Once you realize that the road is the goal and that you are always on the road, not to reach a goal, but to enjoy its beauty and its wisdom, life ceases to be a task and becomes natural and simple, in itself an ecstasy.

      The teams in the fall season were doing extremely well, one winning a State title. So I'm glad this little pizza shop decided to focus on them!

    You had me fooled until the second photo. A high school team near here changed their name to the Bears because previous name "Marauders" had too many negative connotations.

      I guess many girls on the teams wouldn't mind being unicorns...but the guys, no way!

    Great idea to have the school's mascot on their window.

      Yes, I imagine they do more business that way. They have opened up their dining room again after being take-out only for over 2 years.

      I may have moved the phone camera around mainly to avoid windshield reflections, so missed that it lined up this way!

      The War Horses might go in drag as unicorns on certain nights of the week!

    I love it, even though it is not a unicorn.

      So a simple light changes a War Horse into a Unicorn. Bet not many magicians can do that!
