Swamp Jesus

[duckettaph]

Correction. It was in Monroe Ohio. Not Middletown.

[jakeduke]

Did you know the only sin that's not forgiven sin is blasphemy

[TheLeviteLine]

That was funny n smart. Spread the word and I can't believe it's not Jesus. God that's funny. I particularly like his reference to "graven images." Yeah that looks like a really big No No. Looks like somebody tried to send a message recently. Jesus Christ! Yow!

[fasteddie847]

One night Big Butter got hit by lightning It burned to the frame wire like a giant grease fire Some blamed it on Satan, and boy, that would be frightening But I thought it was Jesus’ father who was in charge of lightning Extra crispy Jesus, Flaming shot Jesus Fireball Jesus Opa Jesus Charbroiled marshmallow Jesus Bananas foster Jesus I’m put out it’s not Jesus Charcoaly lord

[kimnathans]

Big Butter Jesus was struck down by lightning.

Guess the Lord hath spoken His opinion of cheesy Jesies.

[bertballz9]

The statue will be remade!

[Jennix77]

Big Butter Jesus is no more. Burned down from a lightning strike! Would be awesome if Heywood would combine his song Toast with this one and call it Buttered Toast.

[Finntroll17]

It was struck by lightning yesterday and burnt down. 

[bcoppola53]

The statue was struck by lightning and burned down to its steel armature during severe thunderstorms a couple of nights ago (mid June 2010). Local officials suspect Zeus. Or maybe God really doesn't like graven images.

[priceoffame]

Oleo Lord. HAHAHA!!

[iuppolarbear]

Great, hilarious song.....not going to be quite the same anymore without the statue around anymore.

Keep writing Heywood. Love your clever music!

[geterdonein01]

Big Butter Jesus was hit by lightning and burnt down the other day. I hear they are going to rebuild it though.

[joshuajrhodes]

It melted!!!

[Didya51]

It's burnt to the ground now as of June 14, 2010

[DeistDennis]

As of last Monday, (June 14th) Sweet Buttery Jesus is now Toast...

[DORproductions117]

Lol, the statue was struck by lightning a couple days ago. It burned down.

[fr33dom101]

RIP Big Butter Jesus.

[doktorzoom]

The BBC reports on the lightning-and-fire demise of this landmark took pains to note that the insurers believe it was "an act of God."

[sigfrd1967]

I was at the taping of this video. I was one of the many waving arms in the audience, not that i can pick myself out. RIP "Big Butter Jesus"

[gymnast937]

ah, it was freakin' scary to see everytime i pass through :/ and its in Monroe...lol. i hated that thing >__<

[sunrize3]

Will the song change now that the statue burnt to the ground?

[uofmalums]

And now....he's gone. Say a prayer.

[Gooberlicious54]

Zeus has been offended by FIVE DOLLAR FOOTLONG JESUS.

And I have proof!

Zeus sent His bolts of lightning and burned Jesus to the ground!

ALL HAIL ZEUS!

[jola251]

And as of today, the Great Butter Jesus is deceased. I understand he's scheduled to rise from the dead, though.

[AJohnnieCanuck]

By an act of Thor, Butter Jesus has now been clarified. He has been spread across the water.

Unfortunately, they intend to have a resurrection. Probably take more than 3 days, this time.

[Mark4669]

RIP BB Jesus :(

[tuttt99]

RIP, Big Butter Jesus. (Went up in flames by lightning--yes, lightning.)

[kusuriurikun]

And it seems that Big Butter Jesus is no more, having been hit by lightning last night...

DGFerguson78: Yup, scary place. Also pretty much the dominionist headquarters in Cincinnati (why is it that it's always the dominionists with the tacky statues? ORU had the giant praying hands of doom too)...

[kimunicorn]

Farewell Big Butter- It's burned down to the framework!

[goddessecouture]

Goodbye, Big Butter Jesus..... although, I hear you will be resurrected.....

[crashinflames]

Well kids, Big Butter Jesus was hit by lightning and burned into the pond last night(6-14-10)....no joke. It's said that it cost $500,000.00 to build and they say they will rebuild it.

[FatDaddiesHotRodsTV]

June 15, 2010 Big Butter Jesus was struck by lightning and burned to the ground.

"Big Butter/Touchdown" Jesus has been struck by lightning and burned to the ground!

[orygun78]

If God was real he would've zapped heywood with lightning and not a statue of himself.

BIg Burnt Butter Jeezus

[calamariOne]

Heywood, It burned down last night as a result of a lightning strike! No word yet if they will replace it but supposedly a new statue would cost $700k.

[Jadyn46]

Big butter Jesus...now TOAST! 

[rippledesigner]

Big Butter Jesus melted last night. Struck by lightning. Nothing but a metal frame now. Ironic that Big Butter Jesus was wiped out by an act of God.

[Rodes27]

Big Butter Jesus...aka Touchdown Jesus...It got struck by lighting and burned down last night.

Struck by a bolt of lightning. How ironic...

Sadly, Big Butter Jesus was struck by lightning and burned last night. I love this song. See Heywood, we told you people would like it. "I can't believe it's not Jesus". Hahahaha

[christykenner]

Big Butter Jesus burned down last night...

[guitargod527]

it is a sad day commrades, after a large wave of storms rolled through last night it appears as though big butter jesus got hit by lightning and burnt to the ground. :(

[spediva812]

This morning BBJ was struck by lightning, but I'm not sure whether it succumbed to the melting or drowning

[pmmalaviya]

Big Butter Jesus got struck by lighting this morning and burnt...act of god?

[anwas777]

Hey Solid Rock Church: look at what your crappy sculpture has done. "Because of you the name of God is blasphemed among the gentiles." This isn't a result of other folks not loving Christ. It is a result of your own irreverence and disgusting christology. Second commandment objections aside, do you really think Christ is best manifest via an ostentatious 62 ft plastic abomination. When YOU become Christ for the world, that will be something.

[lilfischy42]

Sadly, Big Butter Jesus was struck by lightning last night and burned . . . : (

[GT4Guy18]

Big Butter Jesus burned up last night. Got struck by lightning

[wooweewow1]

i wonder if any one has looked at this lightning strike on big butter as a sign from god and a lesson in idolatry, and before i get bashed i do believe Jesus is the son of god not based on any said "religion" but by my own faith, and still the man who came from god to bring us the word of god tells us specifically this is wrong and thousands of years later we still haven't gotten the message.

[Aldark22405]

Big Butter Jesus melted after a lightning strike.

[ROBfan96]

R.I.P. Big Butter Jesus...

[carbon60unit]

Alas, Big Butter Jesus is, ah, toast. The southwest Ohio icon was destroyed by a lightning triggered fire. Let's review: 60+ foot steel structure covered by wood, foam and Plexiglas, in a pool of water. Surprising this did not happen sooner.

[tomcollinspoker]

RIP Big Butter Jesus.

[mhell246]

Big Butter Jesus is no more---

It was hit by lightning June 14th, 2010 and burned to the ground in minutes.

[JohnMilleker]

So long big butter Jesus. Lightning strike tonight and he lit on fire and is gone. I didn't know that butter could burn.

[IncredibleSmoke420]

BIG BUTTER JESUS IS NO MORE!!!!

GOD HAS SPOKEN

HE STRUCK DOWN WITH HIS MIGHTY FIST IN THE FORM OF A LIGHTNING BOLT AND BURNT THAT MOTHERFUCKER TO THE GROUND!

[dottiespots]

Big Butter Jesus, or Touchdown Jesus as I knew him, is no more. He got struck by lightening last night and burned down- all that is left is the wore frame.

[armyangel1226]

Big Butter Jesus burnt down today!

[jlt1984]

It's gone (6-1410). This is a funny song especially when you've seen the giant statue!

[purpleswan6]

This is the best yet. Im glad to see no one has complained about blastmephy. Because its just a statue and although it creeped me out, looking like he was drownding. The song is hilarious!!! Now its gone, burned to the ground on Monday night storm from of all places, a lightning strike from heaven. Guess that says it all.

[cptkonrad]

Late June 14th 2010 the statue was hit by lighning and burned down.

[tradervicb]

Big Butter Jesus was struck by lightning tonight and burned to the ground!! All we have left now is the memories and this silly song & video!

[PeaCocksDude]

[TayHeartzYou]

Haha I'm watching the news and there is a lot of thunder storms going on and my mom comes running in from the other room screaming touch down jesus is on fire! Apparently it got hit by lighting and cought fire.

"Can't Believe It's Not Jesus!"

[DGFerguson78]

I live in Middletown, Ohio. And, YES, it is as scary as it seems gordiam. I used to work out of town and had to take the I-75 and I had to pass it every morning and evening. I know a lot of people that attend the church it is stands outside of but I never liked going there. I only went a few times and chose to go elsewhere.

[mgvideos1000]

@DGFerguson78 it saved my life

[xoxopr0ud]

I can't believe it's not butter Jesus!

[west1132]

[Hieifireshadow]

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT JEEEESUS.

[MNDcougars]

[geterdonein01]

"It's kinda interesting that your, initial reaction to the statue, and who the statue is, is the same word........ Cause your just drivin' along calmly and you see this thing and go, JESUS!!!!"

[schwaldf]

The one sure thing I'm convinced of in life is that God has a sense of humor.

[bvfreaf]

And the Lord said the field goal attempt was good.

[hedlessniper]

"I can't believe its not jesus" lol

[armymedic9]

TOUCHDOWN JESUS!!!!!!!!!

[gordiam]

ahahah 'I'm italian but I found out this cool man looking for halloween song.. we dont have touchdown jesus in Rome.. is it as scary as it seems? :-)

[bvfreaf]

It's actually scarier.

[herschede16]

yes it is

[LadyAryun]

@gordiam He's scary if you're not expecting him. After awhile, though, it becomes the best part of I-75.

[Yuethefox]

@gordiam it isn't anymore it burned to the ground because lighting struck it.

[Yuethefox]

@gordiam it isn't anymore it burned to the ground because lighting struck it.

This was shot at the Jukebox Comedy Club in Peoria, IL. I was actually there tonight seeing Heywood Banks.

[Jnmcda0]

Between the big butter Jesus in Monroe and the Creationist Museum in Petersburg, KY, we've got all kinds of religious stupidity in the Cincinnati area.

[rockbandman41]

i live in ohio its huge me and my friends call it touchdown jeus

[InHisPresence777]

I'm sure part of the purpose of the statue was to get people talking...looks like it worked!

[InHisPresence777]

Part of the purpose of the statue is to get people talking....looks like it worked!

[IronManOfficialguy]

@InHisPresence777 Yes except that everyone is discussing how stupid it looks.
