"Part of the Gorillas’ famed “Gorilla Walk” and a destination for alumni and fans, the Champions Plaza sculpture has become a beloved part of Pittsburg State tradition. Corbin Studios...cast the powerful 2,000-lb. sculpture that stands at the center of Pittsburg State’s Champions Plaza."
The mascot for Pittsburg State is the gorillas - this school is the only college with the gorilla as a mascot.
