Roadside Oddities

Giant signs at the side of the road ask. ‘The Thing? What is it?’ Roadside attractions such as The Thing are odd and astonishing. They ask people to stop and check them out. Here are some examples of roadside attractions:

The World’s Largest Baseball Bat: It is taller than the five-story building it stands beside. It weighs as much as three school buses.

The Corn Palace: It is decorated with grasses and corn of different colours. The Corn Palace is also the world’s largest bird feeder. When the winter starts, birds and squirrels eat palace-the art.

Barney Smith’s Toilet Seat Art Museum: Do you have extra toilet seat? Bring it to Barney Smith’s Toilet Seat Art Museum. He has made more than a thousand different toilet seats into work of art.

Carhenge: In Nebraska, you can visit a model of English Stonehenge. It wasn’t built with old stones but with thirty-eight old cars.

Sign Post Forest: This forest isn’t made of trees but instead it is made of more than 100,000 signs.
