Italy, Epcot

[Jodi1980]

In Italy there is a pillar of a man holding a sphere and bowling ball-has anyone ever seen??

I havne't seen it, but here is a pic of it. He was shown the "bowling ball" on a tour of the World Showcase.

Where exactly in Italy is he?

I'm not sure. But from the way the pic was taken, it has to be at eye level or somewhere just under it.

It might even be close to a corner.

I'm sure someone will pop up who has seen it and can tell the exact location.

But knowing that will ruin the thrill of the hunt.

this area looks similar to the fountain, is this perhaps on the under part of the back fountain?

During one trip, I walked around each pillar looking for it until I got dizzy and had to stop.

Within this past year or so , Italy received an entire face lift and all the pillars and walls of the palace were replaced. The new pillars do not contain the bowling ball king. It used to be on the 5th pole from the front of the pavilion. I do not know why they did not keep this unconventional hidden mickey, I think the builders did not know it was there.
