A large, colorful statue of a Viking warrior—known as "Big Ole" through the years—stands on a street median, surrounded by vintage cars, streetlights, and buildings under a blue sky with scattered clouds.

Old pic of the Rotary Youth Exchange posing with Big Ole while he was directly in front of the Runestone Museum. How many thousands (maybe millions?) of people have posed with our Viking king over the years!?
