One of my absolute favorite things to do when I am out riding around is to find roadside oddities and attractions. I have been known to make many a U-turn while driving down the road. This page will be dedicated to any roadside attractions that I have found in the state of Missouri .
It will be a constant work in progress as I will add new oddities and attractions every time I find one. Make sure you check back often for new updates. Better yet, subscribe to my site so you will be informed each time content is added. Don’t worry, no spam here. I only send out emails once a week, usually on Fridays. Subscribe Here

Pasghetti’s in Branson is home to what is often cited as the world’s largest fork and meatball, a towering landmark that makes it impossible to miss this Italian eatery as you cruise down 76 Country Boulevard.
Themed Interior: The oddity doesn’t stop at the curb; the restaurant inside features elaborate themed rooms, including a 1930s-style streetscape and even an indoor Ferris wheel.
Enormous Scale: The sculpture features a giant silver fork standing roughly 15 feet tall, spearing a massive, deep-red meatball that looks like it weighs several tons.
Whimsical Gateway: The fork and meatball actually serve as a literal gateway; the restaurant’s entrance is positioned right alongside the sculpture, welcoming guests into its highly themed dining environment.
