Matchstick museum reaches “name-drop” status

U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-MN, talked to Iowa Democrats at the convention in Charlotte, NC. Here’s how she familiarized herself, according to Politico:

“You have Albert, the world’s largest bull, we have the world’s largest ball of twine. You carve cows out of butter, right? We carve princesses. You have the Matchstick Museum, we have the world-famous Spam museum,” she said.

She’s referring to the Matchstick Marvels Museum in Gladbrook.

The museum also inspired a Nebraskan to recreate his state capitol building out of matchsticks.
