The World's Largest Crayon

On my way back from the trip to New York City I stopped in Easton, Pennsylvania to see the Crayola Factory and the world's largest crayon. Weighing 1500 pounds, the blue crayon was created in 2003 and is 15 feet long and 16 inches in diameter. It was created from 123,000 leftover crayons donated by children from around the country. According to Crayola "you could color a straight line for nearly 10 miles or cover an area the size of a football field."
