Thurman Thomas -- Reunited & It Feels So Wood

Posted Oct 15th 2009 6:20PM by TMZ Staff

Thurman ThomasAfter several traumatic days away from home ... the missing Thurman Thomas statue finally returned to Buffalo today -- where he was greeted by his flesh-and-bones counterpart.

The woman who sculpted the statue of the NFL legend went all the way to Canada to pick up Wooden Thurman from a guy who claims he rescued the 1000-pound beast from pyro-maniacal vandals last weekend.

But the statue won't return to its perch outside Buffalo Bills stadium -- too dangerous. But its new home won't be too far away ... Thurman Thomas plans on keeping it at his official training center.

Finally, a victory in Buffalo...

5. That is the most retarded looking piece of crap I've ever seen. Just put a #8 on it and say it's Troy Aikman. I would be embarrased to claim that as my "art."

6. I didnt realize Thurman played back in the days with no facemasks. That is one of the dumbest looking statues. They seriously had this thing outside the stadium?
