By the way, the original Fatso is now housed in a glass case in Kerry Stokes's North Sydney office[http://www.auspaytv.info/showthread.php?t=3167&goto=nextnewest]. Anyone reckon they can get a picture of that?! [[User:John Dalton|John Dalton]] 12:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

I was under the impression the correct name was Fatso the Big-Arsed Wombat, not 'fat-arsed.'

Please don't ruin an already bad piece by created Wikilinks for every word - this is ridiculous. If it re-appears in this form I will vfd it. The curate's egg 14:11, 7 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No pictures? How can you have a mascot article without a picture? 80.6.122.234 18:32, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More

It's definitely 'fat-arsed', as vulgar/funny as that is! As for pics, that's a great idea, let's see what we can find, copyright stuff in mind. (Westius 05:55, 22 February 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Picture

We need a picture of the Fatso sculpture outside the Olympic (Telstra) stadium! He is standing on top of a pole, along with all the poles inscribed with the volunteer's names, between the Novatel and the stadium. Someone can take a photo and release it under the GFDL.John Dalton 08:37, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I passed this on to a photography forum I frequent, and someone kindly got a couple of pictures of fatso, and is happy for me to pass them on under the GFDL. Would I need this person's real name etc. or is it sufficient that these pictures are known to have been released under the GFDL by the photographer?

By the way, the original Fatso is now housed in a glass case in Kerry Stokes's North Sydney office[1]. Anyone reckon they can get a picture of that?! John Dalton 12:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the Second Fatso?

Anyone know what happened to the second Fasto? Stokes bought one. Where is the other? John Dalton 06:17, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
