FIREWORK TITTIES OF FREEDOM!!!

Another neat thing about Lady Liberty in this reality is that she can shoot fireworks from her nipples! Something that her designer - the French sculptor, Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, had always intended for her to do and even included it in the original schematics, along with how it would be achieved.

This idea was shot down unfortunately by Gustave Eiffel, the builder of the statue's metal framework, who pointed out that the addition of such a design would be too costly, potentially dangerous, and have such a high likelihood of failure, that it wouldn't be worth the effort. Not to mention the potential goofiness factor; that the Americans would find the idea of a woman shooting out multi-colored exploding light from her breasts so ridiculous that they would completely reject her!

(WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?)

Frederic pleaded with Eiffel to reconsider but eventually gave in and Lady Liberty would go on to be built and later dedicated on October 28, 1886 as a symbol of friendship between the United States and France, but with firework-less nipples.

Frederic's vision wouldn't be fully realized until almost 100 years later when in 1974, recently sworn-in 38th U.S. President Gerald Ford - looking for someway to lighten the nation's mood after the humiliating one-two punch of Vietnam & Watergate (not to mention all the other stuff going on in the 70s up to that point) had the original plans dug up and ordered the designs on her breasts & nipples be implemented in-time for America's upcoming bicentennial.

The project (the details of which are too complex & unimportant unless someone on here with a background or interest in engineering can post a comment explaining how something like this possible) took 2 years to complete and on July 4th, 1976 10:00 P.M. EST, Frederic - though having no living descendants - got to see his vision fully realized when he - along with millions of Americans (including families who let their children stay up passed their bedtimes to witness this momentous occasion) and hundreds of millions of people worldwide (at least those not trapped behind the Iron Curtain) watched live from their TVs (or were actually there in person) in amazement as Lady Liberty - now upgraded to D-cups from her original B's - put on a spectacular show as streams of red, white and blue fireworks shot out of her copper milk suckers for what seemed like an eternity before finally ceasing at exactly 12:00 A.M.

This amazing display not only helped improve the country's mood slightly, but also helped President Ford - who was there in-person to take part in the celebration as well as full responsibility just in case the whole thing turned out to be a failure - boost his approval ratings and help with his reelection campaign.

It wouldn't be enough though as he would still go on to lose the election to Jimmy Carter when voters went to the ballot box later that November.

Ever since then, Lady Liberty has continued flashing her titties every year for the last 49 years! Lighting them up for...

• New Year's Day (January 1st @ Midnight)
• Veterans Day (November 11th)
• Independence Day (July 4th)
• Frederic Auguste Bartholdi's birthday (August 2nd)
• Patriot's Day (April 15th)
• 9/11 Remembrance Day (September 11th)
• V-E Day (May 8th)
• V-J Day (August 14th)
• Memorial Day (May 26th)
• Election Day (November 4th every 4 years after the votes have been counted)
• Inauguration Day (January 20th)

With each display being unique to that day.

In-universe, Mr. Bartholdi's desire to give Lady Liberty firework nipples turned out to be so iconic, female pop stars have been paying homage to it since 2009!
