Ski Demski was apparently a very colorful local character in Long Beach, California. He was a professional Santa..but also known for having the largest flag in the world. It flew on the gigantic flagpole next to this statue. After he died, his cremated remains were placed inside the eagle which sits atop the flagpole.
Demski was also once a candidate for Mayor in Long Beach and he was invited to one of George W. Bush's inaugurals.
