1. 5.0 World's Largest Rocking Chair (207 reviews)
   - Very big
   Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   This is one gigantic rocking chair. One of our favorite big things in the town. We spent the evening driving/walking around Casey looking at all of the big things. The city of Casey has a website where you can see the location of all of the world records/big things they have. I'd recommend getting that first. See more..
   
2. 5.0 World's Largest Mailbox (136 reviews)
   - Glad My Mailbox isnt this BIG
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   Climbing the steps up to the 2nd floor to get into the mailbox gives you the perspective you need to appreciate just how big this is. There is a mail drop slot upstairs into a collection box if you want to mail a letter. Shouldn't be hard to spot the mailbox from the street. See more..
   
3. 5.0 Giant Bird Cage (47 reviews)
   - Thoughtfully Made Birdcage
   Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   This was more than a bird cage. The swing inside was a nice touch and I love the bible scripture verse inscribed on top of the cage to give a thought to ponder. "Look at the birds of the air; They Do not sow or reap or store away in barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than them? See more..

   The Wind Chime is located next to a restaurant (access via their patio), on a street corner lot across from both the World's Largest Rocking Chair & the World's Largest Teeter-Totter on the east end of the "Biggest Things" attractions along Main Street Casey. The chimes can be rung by visitors by pulling on large ropes at the bottom. The chimes bear four symbols - two each Star of David & ichthys - reflecting the religious values of the town.

9. 4.5 World's Largest Pitchfork (66 reviews)
   - Edge of Town but Worth the Detour
   Points of Interest & Landmarks
   
   
   You don't wanna exclude the World's Largest Pitchfork while you're touring & marveling at all the other "Big Things" in Casey, IL. It is on a farm not far northeast of downtown adjacent to the parking lot of the Richards Farm Restaurant, so you can gawk & eat in the same detour. At 60 feet long & 1,940 pounds, it is an impressive farm implement that Paul Bunyan would covet - if he ever switched careers. See more..

11. 4.5 Big Knitting Needles and Crochet Hook (35 reviews)
    - A Darn Big Yarn
    Sunday: Points of Interest & Landmarks
    
    
    The Big Knitting Needles have been relocated (and maybe the store did too?) to straddle the interior entrance to The Yard Studio on East Main Street in Casey, IL. Still an impressive artifact among its many giant cousins around town, but more difficult to get a good snapshot in the new location. Still, it makes for an impressive welcome sign to the shop space. See more..

    - Write on the Tablet of Your Heart
    Points of Interest & Landmarks
    
    
    Not the world's biggest but a replica yet still a Super Sized Pencil. How appropriate today that the bible verse attributed to it reads: "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart." Matthew 3:3 See more..

    - Still a yard stick?
    Spent < 1 hour Architectural Buildings • Monuments & Statues • Scenic Walking Areas

18. 4.0 World's Largest Teeter Tawter (13 reviews)
    - You need lots of friends
    Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
    
    
    Billed as the largest teeter totter in the world, it really is impressively large at around 100 feet long and made of steel and pressure treated lumber. It won’t actually rock back and forth until they get a big group on, unlock the chains, close the gate at the end and get the group to go back and forth. Still, very cool See more..
    
19. 3.5 The Big Coin (13 reviews)
    - Missed it coming into town
    Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
    
    
    We didn't know exactly what we were looking for, so we missed it the first time passed. The token has pics of the world record holders in town on it. We spent the evening driving/walking around Casey looking at all of the big things. The city of Casey has a website where you can see the location of all of the world records/big things they have. I'd recommend getting that first. See more..
