Giant Tiger in Red Wing Jersey
2008 Stanley Cup Finals
Comerica Park
Detroit, Michigan
June 2008
In front of Comerica Park, a massive, roaring Giant Tiger statue stands as an iconic symbol of the Detroit Tigers baseball team. Towering at 15 feet tall and weighing approximately 2,500 pounds, the ferocious feline is captured mid-snarl, its sharp teeth bared and powerful muscles tensed as if ready to pounce. The statue, sculpted by artist Michael Keropian, is a tribute to the team’s fierce spirit and a favorite photo spot for fans.
The Detroit Red Wings defeated the Pittsburg Penguins in six games to win their eleventh Stanley Cup title.
