Passersby couldn't help but notice on Tuesday that workers were busy adorning the distinctive Tesla “T” on the chest of the iconic Golden Driller at the Tulsa County fairgrounds.
The Tesla name also now appears on the belt buckle of the statue.
What's not clear is whether this is simply a fun PR move to help in the efforts to lure the electric vehicle maker to town, or if it's a sign of some major impending announcement.
Reports from multiple news agencies revealed that Tulsa is one of two finalists for a new Tesla assembly plant.
The group behind the new Golden Driller decorations reportedly said they're planning a news conference on Wednesday to say more about it.
