Happy Friday, Soda Citizens. Whether you’re just getting your day started, on break at work, or getting off early for a long weekend, we wanted to bring you some Friday fun in our newsletter.

Local artist Blue Sky is behind some of Cola’s most recognizable public art, and most of it is very large. This puzzle is one of those pieces and was unveiled in 1975. Recently, it’s been getting a touch-up of paint.

You can make this as difficult or easy as you like (from six to 1,054 pieces) and there’s even a multiplayer mode. It also keeps track of your timesend us a screenshot of your quickest finish and we might just have to shout out your puzzle prowess.
