It's Lucas Cherry and this Facebook post is approaching 3,000 reaches

Posted by Fred Steiner on June 21, 2018 - 9:52am

The Icon announces a new Facebook record.

We promised him 750 Facebook reaches within 48 hours. The total as of 9:43 a.m. June 21 is 2,696. It's still growing.

The Icon spotted Bluffton High School 1999 graduate Lucas Cherry downtown Bluffton during the Shirley's Popcorn birthday party. Snapped this photo and then challenged Icon viewers to ID this guy and offer a comment or two.

We promised some Shannon Theatre passes to what we judged as the best comments.

First,  a question. Can someone explain the Edgar Fabian reference?

By Monty Siekerman, Ada Icon
Sometimes, almost never, you find what might look like a flying shrimp in the most unlikely place...and all of this has a local connection.

Judith Greavu, Bluffton College and ONU art professor emerita, sculpted “Tide Pool with Shrimp” a bronze and fused glass creation on display in Lakeland, Fla., now through the end of the year.
