TAMPA, Fla. — Scottish artist Warren Elsmore has perhaps the coolest job on the planet.

He's a professional Lego builder whose detailed creations go far beyond what many of us make in our family rooms.

His brilliant work can now be viewed inside "Brick Dinos," a Jurassic-sized new exhibit at Tampa's MOSI. In it, millions (or is it billions?) of Lego take the shape of prehistoric beasts that roar when you get close.

"Brick Dinos," which includes hands-on activities for kids, is included with museum admission. Adult tickets are $14, and kids' tickets are $10.

“We’ve struggled so hard to scrape the money to be able to do this for her,” Irizarry said. “She’s my only girl and I wanted this so much for her.”

Couples and families who had weddings and events planned at a well-known venue that abruptly closed claim they’re out thousands of dollars and aren’t being given refunds. Annette Irizarry was supposed to hold her 15-year-old daughter’s quinceañera in August at the Clearwater location and said she’s now out the $6,160 she paid. Without that money, Irizarry said she can’t afford to have her daughter’s celebration somewhere else.
