Big Tom, a fiberglass sculpture, celebrates the turkey farming industry in Minnesota. Maybe it should be called "Big Tom, Jr.," because it replaces an earlier, smaller World's Largest Turkey on this spot. The earlier sculpture was destroyed in an accidental fire. The new ruler of the roost is 22 feet high, 17 feet wide, and weighs over 5000 pounds.
Big Tom struts his stuff in Lions Park. There is free off-street parking (unpaved).
