Asheville Man Was not intended as a Balsaman Burn. He was the First Asheville burn. No other affiliations need apply.

@Mark -- Don't worry, there's talk of a Woodfin burn next year. I guaran-damn-tee that THAT one won't be too big.
That said, the big one you see wasn't really affiliated with Balsa Man but with the A'ville regional burn. The tiny effigy he's holding (which you can't really see) is the Balsa man effigy.

that's like 8 feet tall! Way too huge for Balsa Man, don't you think? The one in California was 2 1/2 feet tall and the art grant process gently reminded participants to not make their art too large.
"er, looks like it might have been a little fun."
