How do you know you’ve made it in New York? Is it headlining a show on Broadway? Having a sandwich named after you at Carnegie Deli? One benchmark is certainly having a wax figure of yourself put on display at Madame Tussaud‘s, which is what happened to Carmelo Anthony on Tuesday:
I love, love, love, that ‘Melo took the opportunity to mess with people visiting his exhibit at the museum. Hand to god, if I ever had a wax statue made of myself on display anywhere, I would do this to people ALL THE TIME. I wouldn’t just do it at the opening, I’d do it when things were slow at work or if an appointment were in the neighborhood, or you know, whenever I had a free minute, and I would never, ever get tired of it.
Congrats Carmelo on the honor. It’s no jersey made of Fruit Roll Ups, but it’s close.

Out here in Denver they hate you Melo, so for my sake a fan of yours shut them up:-)
Thanks, A Fan From Denver.
Too bad he don’t scare that much on defense
haha funny and accurate call from you sir
ha ! ha! Ha! melo made a good laugh of some people at the wax museum. I hope the knicks will not be a laughing matter this season! Go knicks!
What’s really scary is that Melo as a wax statue plays better defense than Melo in real life.
haha its funny cos its true
i dont get how carmelo gets a wax statue, seriously what has he done to warrant that? apart from being one of the most overrated nba players of all time.
Funny melo, but you still don’t deserve to “represent” NYC in that museum, I mean next to MJ? No way!
the end was funny, the girl yelling
hahahah probably the best accolade he’ll get in his career.
Nice
Man he did that well!!
All haters stay away we appreciate you Melo that was too funny how you scared that last couple I am laughing my head off at work looking crazy
Will the real Melo please stand up?
