Branson, MO-A giant white cock-a-doodle-doo has landed on Highway 76 in Branson at the Great American Steak & Chicken House which opened on Tuesday. Visitors who heard about the 43-foot tall structure wondered if it was indeed a colossus poultry or a monument to the male reproductive organ.
“I heard it was a giant wiener, which I don’t think represents the area in the best light,” said Huey Longhorn, a Branson native, “I think the bird-brained idea has merit, but only if people recognize it as what it was intended to be – not a big dong.”
According to reports the giant chicken wang was constructed in several parts and assembled onsite. “We had to insert the main shaft, then assemble the head onto the member,” said project manager Richard Head, “it was a tedious process which included several back and forth motions to get it to come together in the end.”
The word-of-mouth excitement generated is starting to pay off. “I’d like to see a 43-foot pecker,” said Norah Jenkins, “I always come to Branson expecting something bigger and better and this year it has really paid off – my relatives in New Jersey will never believe that I touched the base of this giant cock. So I had my picture taken at the base.”
Officials have yet to sanction a ribbon-cutting ceremony citing a lack of ribbon to surround the giant piece; however the cock is expected to be encircled with a ceremonial early next month.
