Viral Mural
A mural blew up on Reddit over the weekend. It was posted by u/bigtomisin with the title “Mural I painted in Memphis, Tennessee.” In one day, the post had more than 44,000 upvotes, 658 comments, and all the Reddit awards. The poster said it is “at Crosstown. They took it off the wall and hung it inside.”
