The Peabody Hotel - Memphis, TN
The Peabody Hotel is internationally famous for it's Ducks in their fountain
"The Legend of the Ducks"
Back in the 1930's Frank Schutt, General Manager of the Peabody, and a friend, Chip Barwick, returned from a weekend hunting trip to Arkansas. The men had a little too much Tennessee sippin' whiskey and thought it would be funny to place some of their live decoy ducks (it was legal then for hunters to use live decoys) in the beautiful Peabody fountain. Three small English call ducks were selected as "guinea pigs." and the reaction was nothing short of enthusiastic. Thus began a Peabody tradition which was to become internationally famous.
