World’s Largest “I Like Ike” Button Unveiled in Abilene
Abilene is now home to the World’s Largest “I Like Ike” Button. Created by local artist Jason Lahr of Fluters Creek Metalworks, this impressive button measures 6 feet in diameter and features the iconic pin-back clasp and convex curve of the original “I Like Ike” campaign button.
“Thank you to everyone who attended today’s unveiling ceremony and those who purchased commemorative ‘I Like Ike’ challenge coins,” said Julie Roller Weeks, Director of the Abilene Convention and Visitors Bureau. “We look forward to welcoming visitors to this big attraction for many years to come.”
