Uhm, is there a statue of Conan O’Brien in Okarche?

Okarche is known for many things. It's the home of Eischen's Bar, the home of Eischen's Bar and the home of Eischen's Bar. It's also the home to a life-sized statue of Conan O'Brien.

Wait...what!?

Okay, okay, that's not a statue of Conan O'Brien holding the hand of a little girl. It's actually a statue of an Oklahoma priest who was murdered in Guatemala in the 1980s. Who cares, though! You could tell anyone that it's a statue of Conan O'Brien and they'd probably believe you. It makes me wonder if Okarche is home to statues of people who look like Pimp Bot 5000 and the Masturbating Bear.

Here are a few other pictures of the statue that I stumbled across on the web:

I'm not sure how this would be done, but someone at KFOR needs to let Conan O'Brien know there's a statue of a dead priest in Oklahoma that looks exactly like him. That would probably creep him out, but you know he'd have fun with it, kind of like when he learned he looks like the female president of Finland. Hell, maybe he'd even come out to Oklahoma to shoot a live episode. That would be cool, because then it would give me a reason to watch Conan O'Brien again. I'd like that.
