Oftentimes, fans take their love and devotion for their idol to the next level. Fans of the tech billionaire Elon Musk have created a 30-foot-long monument to honor their hero, except he is depicted with the body of an actual goat. After all the drama surrounding his Twitter purchase, it’s safe to say he’ll take all the love he can get right now, regardless of how strange.
Despite being a rather unusual piece of art, the Musk Goat is actually worth an estimated $608,000. To make the statue even weirder, Musk is also riding a rocket because why not.
The group of fans behind the statue are from the cryptocurrency firm Elon GOAT Token ($EGT), who plan on presenting it to the billionaire at his Tesla workplace in Austin, Texas, at the end of the month.
“Most people thought we would never do it but after one year of building the time has come to bring it home to Elon. Really we just want to meet the guy and give it to him,” a spokesman for $EGT said.
They added: “After all, he is the most innovative human alive, hence the GOAT — Greatest Of All Time.”
The monument was built on the back of a semi-trailer in honor of Musk’s “many accomplishments and commitment to Cryptocurrency.” The aluminum head alone stands at nearly six feet tall and was built by Canadian metal sculptors Kevin and Michelle Stone. It took them more than 700 hours to create.
The group plan on delivering the statue on November 26, 2022. As of right now, Musk has yet to respond to the invitation.
