It’s only a matter of time before this courageous kid’s triceps give out and he gets crushed by the potato!
The World’s Largest Potato is at the Potato Museum in Western PEI. It is far superior to any Idaho or Maine potato exhibits, a fact that Americans should be ashamed of.
The PEI Potato Museum sells burlap sacks in the gift shop and potato candy at the snack bar.
The fiberglass potato, generously funded by the O’Leary Chamber of Commerce, also provides the classic “holding the giant thing” pose.
This cute Canadian couple tries to line up the perfect Tacky Tourist Photo at the World's Largest Potato.
(If you can’t get enough of spuds memorabilia, check out how the PEI Potato Museum cleverly displays potato diseases. Cute little coffins are involved!)
