Can you ‘cone’ Glasgow’s iconic Duke?

Glasgow Cone Challenge allows fans all over the world to have a go at a digital version of one of the city’s best-known pranks.

This fun and free to download iPhone app challenges players to score points by throwing traffic cones onto the Duke of Wellington’s head.

The iconic bronze statue of the Duke astride his horse – outside Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) – is globally famous for the fluorescent orange traffic cone ‘hat’ that the Duke has worn off and on (but more frequently on!) for more than 20 years.

The traditional ‘coning’ is seen by many as a reflection of Glasgow’s much loved and irreverent sense of humour and is firmly embedded in the city’s culture.

The app allows players to post their scores on Twitter and Facebook, while the latest tweets from @seeglasgow also appear as a real-time feed on the game’s homepage, providing players with up-to-the-minute information about what’s going on in the city.

Don’t put a real cone on the Duke’s head, play the game instead!
