Mighty Og
Mighty Og was a roadside attraction consisting of a  high sculpture of a gorilla from the waist up.  It originally graced a billboard promoting Rawhide City, a tourist attraction in Mandan, North Dakota.   

The statue was auctioned following the Rawhide City bankruptcy.  It was purchased by James Lelm who engaged a house mover to transport it the  to  Harvey, North Dakota.  He had intended it as an attraction to his hardware store, but opted not to proceed due to structural concerns.  A site was eventually located on Highway 52.  The figure shakes its fist at a large hornet above its head to indicate that "even a gorilla can't beat the Hornets", a reference to the local school team.

The structure was destroyed in a strong windstorm sometime before June 2005.

North Dakota has a number of these giant statues including a  sandhill crane, a  high Holstein cow, a  grasshopper, and a  buffalo.  One hypothesis put forth is that these figures distinguish one community from another in an otherwise somewhat featureless landscape.
