Bay Bridge Troll - a photo on Flickriver

Bay Bridge Troll

            The San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge suffered serious damage in the Loma Prieta earthquake.  Part of the upper deck collapsed, and the bridge was closed for over a month while repairs took place.  The iron workers who repaired the bridge secretly attached this troll to the bridge to guard the bridge from harm.  When the new eastern section of the bridge was opened in 2013, this troll came down and was loaned to the Oakland Museum of California for temporary display.  Not so secretly this time, a 2nd troll was put up on the new span.
