I drove to New Orleans to see the 2015 Sugar Bowl (Ohio State vs. Alabama) and took I-65 through upper Tennessee on the way home.

I stopped at a place called "Sad Sam's" in Cross Plains, TN to buy gasoline. They also sold groceries and fireworks. What a combination! Anyway, I walked inside the store to look at their fireworks, and I saw these kinds of figurines:

(That's not my FB account, by the way. I don't have a FB account.)

Cross Plains is located in Robertson County, one county north of Davidson County (the location of the HuffPo article).
