So we of course can’t be positive it’s the most-photographed billboard in the country, but we know it’s definitely the most famous in the state. It sure seems like this specific billboard is something everyone wants a photo of when they see it. Our fancy and beautiful billboard is certainly one of a kind! Whether you know it as Wheatus or Wheat Jesus, he’s here for you.
