Organizers said the Bowl Plaza Grand Opening was the culmination of a four-year dream to build a downtown rest room in Lucas. But Bowl Plaza, built with the help of a grant from the state Department of Commerce, never was intended to be a typical rest room.
The rectangular men's and women's building is shaped like a toilet tank, and the oval-painted entrance resembles an upraised toilet seat lid.
The walkway to and from the rest rooms is shaped like an unfurling toilet paper roll.
The daylong event Saturday included a toilet seat toss and Tubular Olympics with empty toilet paper rolls.
