Edmonton "VUE" magazine votes this location: "Bestest place for a streetfight" in Edmonton - due to the quirky and unusual location of this Giant Baseball Bat.
The bat is 15-metres high (long) and is made of Aluminum - set on a 6m high pedestal. At this time (2006) It still ranks as the largest baseball bat in Canada. The giant bat, made by Edmonton’s GT Metal Products, can be rotated at the push of a button.
It's another of those places - you just HAVE to go to - and once you get there - you wanna leave - but wait! Theres a geocache at this location too!
If you review the Google maps image of the location - you can see it's shadow!
