Some strange big thing was transported across the streets of Riga, Latvia. People
actually didn't know why somebody needed this in the old city downtown.
It's something strange even for those who have seen a lot of weddings -

This Russian guys were making bbq, everything
was OK, until a pigeon has not appeared:

propaganda, so only approved from the Communist party wall-art could appear. Some still remain there until nowadays - like this one in one of Moscow subway stations.
