In 2001, a Fox reality TV show called Murder in Small Town X was filmed in Eastport, Maine about a dinner murder mystery with contestants who had to collect clues from actor “townspeople” to solve the murder. The fisherman statue was made for the show, and although it was cut from the show’s budget the statue was made anyway and became an Eastport classic for various reasons, including its goofiness and symbolism. The winner of the show, 횁ngel Jarbe, Jr., a Bronx firefighter, was killed in the World Trade Center on September 11, one week after the series finale so the statue is also a memorial for Mr. Juarbe.
