00:00Hey to fellow travelers, Mark here with Walters World, and today we're here in Casey, Illinois.
00:03Yes, home of numerous Guinness World Records, including this fantastic piece of work,
00:08the world's largest rocking chair, and right across the way, the world's largest wind chime.
00:14And when you do come here to Casey's, this is one of those things in the U.S.
00:17when you drive around, they like the roadside attraction.
00:20They just wonder if it's a dinosaur on the road or going to Uranus, you know, Indiana to get fudge.
00:26I mean, there's all kinds of silly things you can go and see when you're in the U.S.
00:28But if you're coming to Casey, they've got a bunch of these things.
00:31I'm going to show you some when you do come here.
00:33Lots of things like, hey, look, got one of the world's biggest mailboxes right there.
00:38Also, not too small of a barber hole right there.
00:42And there's also a pencil.
00:43Here's the thing, when you come here to Casey, some of these things at one time were the world's biggest,
00:47the world's largest, largest, whatever, but they've changed over time.
00:50But they still have a few that are still record holders.
00:52So it's still fun to come here and check it out.
00:54Also, some cute shops, too.
00:56And see, and they even have a birdcage.
00:57Not the world's largest birdcage, but you can put your favorite bird in there.
01:06But I will tell you, if you do come here, a lot of the stuff is actually closed on Monday
01:10if you're looking at the shops or, like, the ice cream place.
01:12So just be aware of that.
01:14But you can still go out the mailbox.
01:20World's largest wooden shoes.
01:22See, Netherlands, you're not that cool.
01:26World's largest commercial puzzle.
01:29Eight foot by 29 feet.
01:31Took them a year to do it.
01:33I mean, they even have the biggest Walters world.
01:37And the world, who knows?
01:39And what's fun is the whole city gets involved in this because even the library has got a
01:43little burpworm outside.
01:47World's largest golf tee.
01:48Yep, you got that.
01:49So if you're going to be driving on 7, you're coming through, you see the KC exit, just come
01:54on down.
01:54You have so many of these big things in a small town that makes for a fun little few-hour
01:59visit when you are here.
02:01There's plenty of little restaurants you can go to, too, and grab snacks as well.
02:03Even public restrooms you can use, even if you don't want to go in and buy things.
02:07There's those for you as well.
02:08So go and explore.
02:09It's a cute little town.
02:10Why not?
02:11You're on the highway anyway.
02:12It's fun.
02:13And world's biggest golf tee.
