This Bucky couldn’t jump around. His feet were glued to the floor.

A Bucky on Parade statue was found in the water at James Madison Park shortly before 7 a.m. Thursday morning, according to a news report by WISC.

The statue, one of more than 80 placed around Madison this week, was found in the beach area of the park.

Gophers, Huskers and Wolverines have all been questioned in connection with the crime.
