Humpty Dumpty Behind the Plate

I went way out of my way to see this. Totally not there anymore.

It might be that Humpty is only behind the plate during the summer months.

Humpty Dumpty.

Humpty Dumpty

A Humpty Dumpty statue sits behind home plate at the baseball diamond adjacent to the Strong's Prairie Town Hall. As a sign dictates, if a batter beans Humpty with a foul ball, he/she gets a free drink. Humpty is large enough to be visible from Wisconsin 21 (my mother-in-law Barb, an avid Roadside America follower, competes with her sisters for the most pictures of larger-than-life statues. This won't be the last you've heard from us!).

My 3 year old son was playing on a nearby play structure when a nest of wasps descended upon him! He escaped unscathed, however anyone visiting should be cautious of the play equipment.

Side note: A few miles west on 21 is a homemade, medium-sized Muskie hanging from a Citgo sign. The Citgo is owned by a Polish entrepreneur who ships in polish candy and other delicacies from a Chicago-based company. They also have an in-house Polish butcher and serve homemade polish sausage.
