Bob Kroll “Butthole” Plaque
The sign is a no parking sign showing a capital letter “P” with a red circle with a diagonal dash through it. Affixed over the “P” of the sign is a clear plaque with a monotone image of the bust of former Minneapolis police lieutenant Bob Kroll. On his head are red sparkly horns typical of devil iconography. Below Kroll’s bust in all capital letters is the word “Butthole,” which is possibly a play on rhyming Bob Kroll’s name. This is located in the vicinity of the Minneapolis Police Officers Federation building.
