HEY Fuck you guy. Nobody likes you people that sit and bitch about a post that may or may not have been someplace else. Sit back and shut the fuck up. If you have already seen it happily pass over it and go to FLBP, or have a wank at sexy chivettes…or chivers if thats your gig. But quit bitching. FUCK!!!

Photo #1 is the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio. It's the filming site of the Shawshank Redemption (Shawshank State Prison) , as well as scenes from Air Force One (Prison camp) , Tango & Cash, Harry & Walter Go the New York and many music videos including Lil' Wayne. Go to http://www.ShawshankTrail.com and they have a whole trail to follow the 14 filming sites in the area for Shawshank. Shawshank Trail Mansfield Ohio also has a Facebook page – yep I'm from Mansfield, Ohio. The place becomes a Haunted Prison the last weekend of September thru Halloween. Creepy, super cool place.
