The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2005 http://www.godsark.org My hometown of Frostburg, Maryland has been home to this...thing...since the 1970s. A man is building it as a replica to house a bible college and auditorium. Known as "God's Ark Of Safety", it has basically been the same collection of metal beams since before I was born. I have seen very, very little change to the actual site for as long as I can remember, though every once in a while I might catch a new beam or two in place. I've heard from various sources that this is actually a pretty famous thing, and that it is recognized and people know my hometown because of it. For reference, these are other possible things my hometown and/or surrounding area could be known for: - William H. Macy's birthplace (about 10 miles away) - Lefty Grove Memorial (he was born about 6 miles away...not sure how many people know this guy) - birthplace of "Eddie Degan" (sp?) from Grease. - Washington Redskins training camp home for about 4 years in the mid 90s. Still, this thing deserves to be pointed and laughed at. I've read a few interviews with the pastor claiming that the completion of this building has something to do with Armageddon. (Apparently WWE is holding a PPV there or something) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2005 If you notice from the pictures, it's still just a few steel girders. Nothing else. I think there may be a small office building type thing to the side of it, and it's flanked to the right by a USED CAR LOT, but meh...it's just a "side of the highway" type of thing.

Guest COCOPUFFS Report post Posted January 29, 2005 I just got back from a roadtrip a couple of weeks ago and actually saw this thing while passing through. Of course I looked at it from the road, but didn't think much of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2005 christ man....where were you going that you had to use Interstate F'N 68... that thing only runs from Morgantown till like Hancock or some shit.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2005 Someone has already done this though. There is a wood replica of the Ark in Tennessee I think or somewhere in the Southern States. It was huge, but no way was I going to stop and check it out. 30 bucks to walk inside? No thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
