As part of its recent Rt.
66 Ribs & Rides car cruise-in and BBQ cook-off held on June
13, Atlanta, Illinois unveiled its newest Rt. 66 tourist
attraction, the “Hit the Road!” game. Located next to the
Bunyon Giant on Rt. 66 in downtown Atlanta, the game is
modeled after the old-fashioned, strongman games found at
carnivals and county fairs. The Hit the Road game challenges
visitors to Atlanta to see how far they can “travel” on Rt.
66 by swinging a giant mallet that hits a steel weight up
along a map of the Mother Road depicting each state and the
major cities along the route from Chicago to L.A.
