Tuska, a 7-ton bronze elephant statue, comes to Bryant-Denny Stadium


Staff report
Fans coming to the University of Alabama's spring football game on Saturday will have the opportunity to see Tuska, a 7-ton bronze elephant statue.
The sculpture, which has resided at the NorthRiver Yacht Club since 2000, was installed Monday outside Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa by a crew from McAbee Construction.
Tuska's new home includes a plaza with landscaping, a large pedestal for Tuska to stand on, sidewalks surrounding the statue and lighting elements for nighttime viewing.
The Tuska plaza is at the southeast corner of University Boulevard and Wallace Wade Avenue in front of the stadium.
The elephant statue was sculpted by English artist Terry Mathews and was given to UA by the Tuscaloosa-based Westervelt Co. Tuska's installation was also made possible by a gift from former UA athletic director Bill Battle and his wife, Mary.
