Southerners Are Failing at Building Snowmen

A major winter storm tests the lower states' snow-sculpting mettle.

Roll three different-sized snowballs, stack them, apply carrot and eye/mouth material of your choice—bam, you got yourself a snowman.

The process sounds so simple, yet in the South, where places are getting socked with up to 10 inches of powder, people are managing to screw it up. Maybe that's because it is many folks' first real snowstorm and they don't know what a snowman looks like, or maybe there's not enough stuff on the ground to work with, but the creatures that are popping up in Alabama, Arkansas, and Texas look funky, craven, and plagued with head deformities.
