Check out some of the most unusual ones in Louisiana below, including the latest one to pop up in New Orleans that is definitely going to make you smile!
- Art the Dalmatian, Shreveport, LA

- Oliver Pollock Fountain and Monument, Frank Hayden, Baton Rouge
facebook.com/GeorgeRogersClarkNationalHistoricalPark/ Oliver Pollock is perhaps one of the most underrated figures in American history.

This is the only monument to him in the United States…and it is pretty intriguing itself!
