BUENA VISTA, CO -- The once attractive Christmas candy house at a local Buena Vista household had deemed uninhabitable and a replica of a "crack house in Detroit."

Talk about ghetto! The home, made of gingerbread with numerous candies and jellies stuck to the outside with icing, had one side of the roof almost completely gone and the front door blown out of the entrance, giving it the appearance that a bomb had struck it. Pieces of candy, closely resembling rubble, remained scattered inside the structure.

"The home has seen better days." admitted Dave Blackburn (bottom left), who sipped hot tea on his back deck as he discussed the state of the candy house, "It was once a wonderful house but now it's just a place for people to shoot up."

Steve "Colorado Guy" Garufi, who was visiting his friends, was encouraged to eat as much of the candy remaining on the house.

"I really like the red and green circular jellies," said Steve (bottom right photo), "I tried to pull off some of the Tootsie Rolls, but they were really stuck to the icing."

Once the photos of the dilapidated candy house were shown to the ColoradoGuy.com community, a flurry of reactions were given.

"I think it looks like a redneck septic tank that was overly decorated for Christmas, and the contents caused it to explode due to overuse on New Year's Eve." stated Scott Baker in Colorado Springs.

"(And) It does look like a Detroit Crack house ... for that matter, a Colorado Springs crack house!" he added.

"Was it made out of graham crackers or ginger bread? If it was graham crackers, no wonder it's already falling down ... It's already ghetto." stated Kansas Kelly.

Lisa in Victor, Colorado had an interesting perspective: "Welcome to the Hypoglycemia house, ravaged by irresponsible diabetics!" she said.

Steve plans to visit his friends in the next day or so to borrow a bike rack so he can have his road bike while in Arizona ... and to have more candy, of course.

"There are some red hots I'd like to have and I'm sure I'll be game for more of those red and green jellies."
