Thank You Mr. Hugh Hefner for Saving Hollywood

Playboy finder Hugh Hefner has donated $900,000 to save the Hollywood sign. The 138 acres behind the sign was going to be turned into fancy houses if nobody paid for the land. An organization was given the option to buy the land for $12.5 million and they had only 1 week to save the historic monument. The organization had only $1 million and Hefner gave the rest of the money to buy the land. Mr. Hefner said "It's become something iconic and represents not only the town but represents Hollywood dreams, and I think that's something worth preserving," at the Iron Man 2 premiere. The words Mr.Hefner said were true because many people come from all over the world to see this famous sign that has defined Hollywood. Without the sign, Hollywood wouldn't be the same. It would just be a lame place. Without the Hollywood sign, it would be like the United States without the Statue of Liberty.
