World's Largest Spur I discovered the World's Largest Spur at the Eisenhower Park, Central Kansas Free Fair, Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo Arena grounds in Abilene, Kansas. The 27 foot high, 2,000 lb spur frames the entry into the arena of the Fairgrounds and has recently been submitted to the Guinness Book of Records for the final stamp of approval. The spur is large enough for a semi-truck and trailer to pass through to enter the arena.
