Would You Believe Me If I Told You That There Was a Darth Vader Stone Sculpture at the National Cathedral in DC?

It's true. Photo attached to show you. They call it The Darth Vader grotesque and it's part of the rain control system on the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. It works by causing the rain bounce off the top of its head away from the stone walls. I won't swear to it, but I think it was added to the Cathedral in the 1980's. Totally not something you'd expect to see on such a historic building.
