World’s Largest Cribbage Board, on Ice

And pretty big dice, too.

For the Art Shanty project held each year on frozen Medicine Lake in Plymouth, Minnesota, creative types create all sorts of artistic, interactive works for the general public.

This year, one such project is Dicehouses, a series of five[1] giant dice-shaped boxes that are actually mini gamerooms for couples to play board and card games in the middle of the frozen lake.

More than that, they also created the world’s largest Cribbage board covering over 2 miles of lake area with gigantic metal stakes for pegs.

Many more photos and information on their blog.
