the world's largest ball of sisal twine印象

Wasn't sure what to expect by driving way out of our way to come here, but were not disappointed. Yes, it's just a large ball of twine, but it's pretty impressive. We even got to add to the ball of twine by a local who came out with a large spool. Believe it or not, in 100+ heat there were 10 other people there just to see the ball of twine - and trust me, there is nothing else in this town. Don't miss out.

During our trip to South Dakota we have talked about these little side trips. One of them being the largest ball of twine which is kind of been a joke during the whole trip, but on the way back coming back to Texas we happened upon this ball of twine. It was quite a sight to see even though the town had let the attraction go far as signage and the site around it.

This was worth the drive to this little town. There it is, under it's own little cover. I was there chuckling with another couple. It just makes you laugh. It does not take that long to drive up there from I-70, so if you have the time, go see this. Also in the area is a big lake, which is really neat. You can also use this time , coming or going from I -70 to go visit Lucas, which has a couple of fun things to see and/or Minneapolis, where you find the Rock City, also fun to go see.There is a little "gift shop" thing across the street in an old building. The lady may or may not be there. But, she has a phone number you can call and she will come to help you out.... lol

This northern route through Kansas breaks up the monotony of I-70 and the Largest Ball of Twine is definitely something to stop and see. There is not much else to the town, but if you want to stretch your legs and talk to your kids about "patience and perseverance" this is worth the stop.

Its pretty straight forward. If you are on a long trip, I wouldn't go any more than 7 or 8 min out of your way. Surrounding area is kinda run down so an ok opportunity for photos.

Here's the truth: it is a big ball of twine. The town even adds to it from time to time, so it's getting bigger. Read the sign across the street from the twine for twine and city details. When we saw it last week, it was decorated as a jack o lantern. It's just for fun, and, if you are in the mood for goofy, then this section of Kansas will provide. There are also local "works of art" around town on building walls-no admission, all with balls of twine in them. Take a walk or drive to see them. And there are venerable stone buildings around too. The drive to and from Cawker City will take you through beautiful farmland. For a bigger dose day of folk art, go to Lucas, but, if you can fit Cawker City in, give it a look see.

Well my 8 year old and I set out to see what we could see and decided we needed to see the worlds largest ball of twine. It is exactly what claimed to be. My 8 year old liked it I only wish they had some information there to read. ..like how big exactly is it...how long did it take to make..was it only one person...

My friends and I drove from Georgia/Tennessee to Lawrence, KS for a fun road trip centered around our favorite tv show, Supernatural (the 2 main characters are from Lawrence). We decided to use a day of our trip to drive 3 hours to see the ball of twine (& 3 hours back), and we didn't regret it! It's a great road trip stop and a fun photo opportunity. The small town is like a ghost town so there really is literally nothing else to do there. Definitely the smallest town I've ever been to. We were directed to follow a child on his bike to a woman's house who apparently sells souvenirs, but she had a sign on her door that she had "gone fishin'". The whole event was rather hysterical and made for a great story. It's nothing glamorous but it can be fun if you want it to be.

Its a big ball of twine, that's it. It's also miles and miles off the freeway. So if you're into wacky road trip things I suppose it's fun. Also the gift shop is kinda weird, around the corner in a really old building. The old lady who works there is super nice though.

My brother the farmer who lives in Ohio had made the trip to visit this ball of twine. He regreted that he burned the twine that secured his hay bales instead of saving it in a ball. He could have been famous! My husband and I were driving cross country and decided to visit the ball of twine. we are gald we did! Don't miss the trail that leads you to discover street paintings that include the ball of twine included in sites such as Stonehenge, etc.
