Marvel At Some Of The World's Largest Objects In The Little Town Of Casey, Illinois

For some, there is nothing more fun than seeking out the world’s largest tourist attractions on a road trip. And if you are looking for a charming small town with several of the world’s largest objects, then head to Casey.

The idea to add massive attractions to Casey was started by local business owner Jim Bolin, who made all the items alongside his crew. Now with 12 certified Guinness World Records for World’s Largest Attractions (and many other supersized objects), this town is a blast to run around in and take pictures. Here are just a few unique roadside attractions you can find throughout Casey:
