Do you have a giant roadside attraction outside of your city?

We do! We have a giant moose. Some of the high school grads are known to paint its.. urm, male parts orange or blue.

thats funny... We don't have any around here.. We're just famous for Mickey Mouse

It's odd that a smaller city like Moose Jaw has a giant mascot when all the capital has is a tiny sign that says "Welcome to Regina"

I dont think we have anything around here like that. We have lots of sillouetes (sp?) of Harry Truman "walking" all down the street I live off. LOL I guess he used to walk all over the place.

We had some sculpted patterned cows scattered around the city (yeah,I don't know either )
One of them was on a floating platform and when they were placing it in the middle of the river it sank and had to be
' rescued'

I found it! LOL The pic says it was Cowzilla. I dont know if my mom came up with that or if it was actually called that. Judging from the size of my brother he was about 10. So I was 15 or so in this pic.

Thank you!! Thats brilliant!!! Cowzilla

Ah, you guys are meaning Cow Parade!

We do have a sculpture just outside of Centre, it's the 'B of the Bang'

We don't have anything as cool as that, but the city where I work, they have Geauga Lake Amusement park................

We have a giant statue of Paul Bunyan, that's been here FOREVER. It is routine for police dispatchers to radio rookie cops with "Man with an axe at Stone & Glenn". Over the years, it was a rite of passage for kids to steal the axe - the owner of the auto parts store there finally bolted it to the statue.

Hmm, the closest I can think of would be the giant Santa CLaus outside of Santa Claus, Indiana. Actually, there were a few more outside of the town but I'm not sure now.

This area seems to have a fondness for elevating items like the car dealership which had a gutted Corvette over its lot. That was followed by the Dodge dealership that elevated a Viper, and the mower repair that stuck a giant push mower mock up on its roof.

NOrth of me is a yard that has a life size moose pulling a sled.

I don't think that we have anything like that here...but what does Alabama have hmmm....nothing...lol

Umm we have Katie the Kinnet Dairy cow outside of our Best Buy because that is where Kinnet Dairy used to be. Nothing other than that though.

I'm pretty sure my city IS a giant roadsite attraction

We have one of the last surviving "Wigwam villages", Wigwam village #2. It's on US-31W..before the interstate highway days, US-31 was THE north-south route from the great lakes to mobile alabama.
