Last year's $100,000 "ice rink" made of plastic coated in mysterious lube will not return to Cal Anderson Park this holiday season, according to Capitol Hill Seattle blog.

We chronicled the debacle of the Holiday Lube Board by trying skating repeatedly on the thing. But it had an unacceptably high bullshit quotient—it was actually referred to as an "ice rink" and cost more than any other actual ice rink in the city—in a neighborhood where it is really best to try to keep the additions-to-bullshit to a minimum, considering we've already got an upscale restaurant called Barrio.
