Anyone who’s taken the 90 across the country knows that there are about a bazillion signs promising the greatest achievement of man for almost 300 miles in both directions. Perhaps it’s only surpassed by the Biggest Ball of Twine.

The Corn Palace, I assumed, was a palace made of corn. That was the problem! I assumed. It’s neither a palace nor is it made of corn. They should consider renaming it the Small House Covered In Corn. And only put signs up for it after you get within 5 or 10 miles of it (or maybe just a little icon on the exit sign would suffice).

Note how even the website doesn’t have any pictures:
