Our travels in Kansas were strictly limited to "passing through" and one stay over for lunch while meeting a wonderful family I met online. I admit, the state of Kansas can be quite boring once you hit the interstate from east to west ... our car was filled with "are we there yet". I fell for the oldest trick in Billboard USA ... we saw the signs that boasted of 6-legged steers and 8,000 pound prairie dogs! We were hooked ... we followed the signs for miles, literally! We finally arrived (none too soon ... ) and indeed, there was the six-legged steer and also a 5 legged cow (pictured laying to the left). There was also a HUGE 4 ton CONCRETE prairie dog in the back! HAHA. Okay, hook line and sinker ... but it was a nice short visit into a tourist trap, and the kids were totally thrilled at the cages of rattlers.

Kansas was not the most beautiful state we've driven through, but there was lots of wildlife out in the open as we drove... more travel advice

Moooooo. LOL
What a shame they didn't have the worlds biggest ball of string! Or the largest collection of rusty cans. You did right by falling in the trap. . A story that may be passed down generations in the family....just think it!
been there and ignored them on the interstate.
