One man And His Cone.
There is a late night sport in Glasgow (usually conducted after a couple of drinks) of placing road cones on the top of statues. This one of the Duke of Wellington in Royal Exchange Square is now so well known for being adorned in this manner that it has become an unofficial symbol of the city.
