Movies
Movies featuring a World's Largest Thing: Pee Wee's Big Adventure (Cabazon Dinosaurs), Michael (fake ball of twine, fake skillett, etc.), Vacation (great intro with postcards from everywhere...), Boys on the Side (Amado Arizona Longhorn skull), I'm sure there are more...
Not saying these are great movies, just feature a World's Largest...
Television
