Dang concrete isn't cheap these days, nor is it readily available when you need it. Sounds like some more fraud, waste, and abuse by governmental agencies that won't be held accountable for their lack of foresight and planning.

Strange.

Those could make a nice stack of fake cannon balls.  Or maybe a billIard ball set.

Or both.
