Sterick Building WTF

Thursday night I went to the Beale Street East End grand re-opening party.  I took a few pics of The Rooster, the W.C. Handy House, etc. and I happened to catch the tall buildings of Downtown in the background.  As I examined one of them, I noticed something odd hanging off the Sterick Building’s flag pole.  “That isn’t a flag,” I thought.  “Unless it got tangled up somehow.”  I decided to aim my 10x zoom lens at the Sterick and get a closer shot.  Look what I found (click the pic to zoom in for larger image):

WTF… is that a body?  Did a midget piss off the wrong person and get made an example of?  Can’t tell.  The pic was taken from 5 blocks away, so that was as close as I could zoom.  Since I live near the Sterick, I’ll try to walk by there today and get a better look at whatever that is.
