いけふくろう像
池袋北口改札のふくろうの石像。
1987(昭和62)年、JRの発足記念として設置されたらしいけど
今は人気の待合場所、、、、ただのオヤジギャグじゃん!
Ikefukuro Statue
Near the JR Ikebukuro station north exit stands a stone statue of a large owl.
Built in 1987, it is now a popular meeting up spot.
Its name is a pun as fukuro means owl and sounds close to bukuro of Ikebukuro.
