Winnie G Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 OK does anyone know what those large town markers are called?????????? Like a big potato or the worlds largest Easter egg. Were we are moving to in Alberta there are small towns around there that have these roadside markers. Vulcan Alberta has a giant Enterprise. They even have a star trek festival each summer. So what are these oddities called? Do any of you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiannan Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 I heard a town in Iowa claims to be the future birthplace of James T. Kirk. Has anyone been to Wall Drug? Now that's a tourist trap -- complete with what, a thousand roadside signs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
