I well remember this sway-back hippo den.
You could depend on it getting hung up on any kind of a dip even on a hard lot.
Especially annoying since it had to leave for parade or to washed out at a fire plug.
I once asked why something wasn't done about it and was told that Mr. King liked it that way.

Who was it who recently mentioned Mr King running out from the curb with a stick to prod the hippo to get out of the tank and up on the deck?
