But does this really count??

FOXNews.com - Topping 122 Feet, Snowman in Maine Vies for World Record:
"BETHEL, Maine — The world's tallest snowman is no man.
The 'snowwoman' towering over this village features eyelashes created from discarded skis and bright red lips made from painted car tires. She wears a giant red hat and a 100-foot-long scarf, and her blond tresses are made from rope. She gets a little bling from a snowflake pendant that's 6 feet long."
If you look at the photo of this 'snowperson' you will notice that it is made of blocks of snow....every kid knows how to make a snow man, it is three BALLS of snow of differing circumference...blocks of snow stacked on each other is a SNOW FORT or an IGLOO....I might be able to see this as a snow SCULTPURE but not a snowperson.

I mean have a 3 yr old draw you a picture of a snow man==3 stacked circles
Have an adult draw you a snowman==3 stacked circles.

Nope sorry....this does not qualify.
Here's a shot of a snowman that's more a snowman than this thing....at least it LOOKS like a snowman....the only thing "Olympia" has in common with a snow man is (a)its made to look like a person (b)there's snow in it.
