America's Strangest Roadside Attractions
Life-Size Chocolate Moose, Scarborough, ME
Most roadside attractions exist outdoors. But this anatomically correct moose of the confectionery variety has no choice but to stay in the cool air-conditioning. Lenny, as he is affectionately known, was crafted from 1,700 pounds of milk chocolate over a one-month period when business was presumably slow. The life-size moose is the mascot for candy store Len Libby, which has been a Maine institution since 1926. —Adam McCulloch
