My mama always said, “if it ain’t yours, don’t touch it,” but clearly not everyone got that memo…

For the second time in two months, someone decided to climb a 100-foot-tall sculpture in the Denver Tech Center.

There’s no word on whether or not it’s the same person who keeps climbing the art installation. No criminal charges were brought against the man the first time, but maybe it’s time for that to happen…
