Orange Fatman
Just north of Flager Beach, Florida on A1A. The business is closed so not sure what is there for. I expect it was a citrus shop at one time.
This photo was taken on May 13, 2007 using a Canon PowerShot S3 IS.

I would think he would scare the customers away more than bring them in!!

The business closed, even with the orange fat man greeting potential customers? I'D have gone there, regardless of what kind of shop it was.

He would seem more friendly if he had arms.
He does have a nice broad smile.

I agree with Blackdoll.....Arms would just make it easier for him to grab us.......This thing is seriously freaky

Ok maybe arms would not help. :)

This was the" Artesia gardens orange bird" ,It had wings in the 1980s.It's in rough shape now! Check out my hazy pic from the 90's.

By the way, the building was a fruit/gift shop.
