ok so i drove past a 20ft fiberglass chicken last weekend and it was MISSING HALF ITS BEAK and i almost cried in the car these places are DISAPPEARING people!! so which one are you pulling over for, no questions asked? also the mini golf one is nice because it's always under par. thats intellectual humor dont @ me. vote and tell me about the saddest one you've ever seen in the comments

giant fiberglass anything, no questions asked. bonus points if the paint is peeling and it looks a little haunted. saddest one i ever saw was a 20 ft dinosaur behind a closed dairy queen in nebraska tbh someone had spray painted a tiny top hat on it and honestly that top hat was the best part tasteful vandalism is art and i'll die on that hill, preferably next to the dinosaur

also the under par joke was bad and i laughed so you win

lol half a beak is still a chicken. not sure theyre all disappearing though, plenty get restored. someone should put them in a database, people would actually use it [URL]https://www.roadsideamerica.com[/URL]

me, i'm pulling over for the ball of twine in cawker city bonus points if theres a giant keyboard anywhere, haven't found one yet

roadside america has been doing the database thing for like 25 years, its a great rabbit hole. lost a whole sunday on it once and came out of it having planned a 400 mile detour to see a giant concrete artichoke. my ex was not amused, which might be why shes my ex

and yeah plenty get restored but a freshly painted one just isnt the same. the fresh paint takes the soul out of it. i want the muffler man missing a hand and the sign thats down to three working letters

the best ones are the giant clocks that stopped years ago a 20 ft clock thats been stuck at 3:47 since the 90s is at least honest about it, unlike the digital sign next to it blinking 88:88 there was a big fiberglass dinosaur outside town too, until the city council decided it violated some signage ordinance because it was technically "advertising." it hadnt advertised anything since the mini golf closed in 2004. now its an empty gravel lot with a very nice permit posted on the fence 🤦
