This 42-foot steel chair was erected at Fanning on April 1, 2008 and once held the Guinness title for the world’s largest rocking chair. Casey, Illinois later surpassed it, and it was repainted red and renamed the Route 66 Rocker; travelers still find it beside old Route 66 west of Cuba as a free roadside landmark.
