Amazing Winter Scene Emerges After Denver City Park Gets Accidentally Coated In Ice

VIDEO
» 6 comments

City Park in Denver became an awe-inspiring science project Wednesday, after a city employee mistakenly programmed the sprinklers in the park to go off at 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday instead of 10:30 a.m. the following morning. The result? What The Weather Channel is terming a “happy mistake” — trees, leaves, and even blades of grass encapsulated in perfect balls of ice. Temperatures hit below freezing overnight as the sprinklers were going off, and everything in the park that was coated with water quickly turned to ice. Officials say no plants or trees were damaged by the ice.

    The city employee responsible for icing the park has got to be a Republicon, since he’s unable to tell the time of the day!!

    The only real mistake is that there were no ‘Occupiers’ squatting there at the time…LOL

    You see, even nature is for occupying parks.
