The Fixtation is coming!

I’m more inclined to think it had something to do with the vending machine being moved. I took another close-up look and I just can’t see how someone would break the glass without leaving a scratch on the outer plastic. The plastic doesn’t bend that much and there’s about a 1″ gap between the two layers. The plastic would have to tear from the edges or suffer damage itself for someone to push that plastic hard enough to shatter the glass.

It’s either the move of the machine, or it has something to do with… aliens. I say that because the nearby tree, about 10 feet away from the vending machine, looks like something from an alien invasion or creature-feature horror movie. “Attack of the Tree Monster in 3D”? “Revenge of the Awakening Statue” in tree form? “Arise and Beware the Threat from Below”?

I don’t think it was the move. Here is a close-up of the photo I took on March 30. No broken glass. Perhaps, in the new location, the sun is a factor.

The move could have bent/twisted something and put additional stress on the glass to the point that it eventually shattered. It’s a strange material.

It’s a closed space between the two panels. Banging on the outer plexiglass hard enough would cause stress on the inner glass, even if they don’t come close to touching each other.
