Purgatory Resorts of Colorado used this sculpture to help attract visitors to their booth during a trade show. Visitors would guess when the blue ticket would melt out of the ice. The closest guess won a trip for two to Purgatory. The sculpture lasted throughout the two day show (the ticket fell out just before the end of the second day.) The look of the sculpture was preserved by encasing the logo inside the sculpture. Plastic inserts are used for the color logo. Because it's transparent and changes over time, ice has many possibilities for contests.
