“The Cat in the Hat”
1,336 cans
The Cat in the Hat stands at eight feet tall
with his friend ‘Norval’ alongside, sitting in his bowl atop a
stack of books. On deciding what to "construct," the team
agreed that the structure should be both fun and challenging.
It was then they realized that nothing would be more fun than
building an 8-foot tall replica of a character from a favorite
childhood book. The can types play a big role in the design of
the structure, as well. The team made sure to keep in mind
where the cans were going after the competition, thus a
variety of cans were selected which include: black beans,
corn, pork and beans, an assortment of chili, tuna and
mandarin orange slices. "Today was good. Today was fun.
Tomorrow is another one."—Dr. Seuss
