Summary

On this episode, host Catie Sheehan takes the show on the road to Casey, Illinois—a town of fewer than 2,500 people that has become home to more record-breaking oversized attractions than any small town has a right to claim. Recorded on location, Catie explores the streets of Casey and sits down with locals to hear the story behind the Big Things: how they came to be, what they mean to the community, and what the future holds for this one-of-a-kind destination. All 34 of Casey's oversized attractions are free and open to the public, making it one of Illinois's most surprising and accessible stops. Come for the World’s Largest Rocking Chair. Stay for the community behind it.
