Butter Cow Sculpture at Missouri Fair | Jefferson City News

Missouri’s butter cow just got a patriotic upgrade—this year’s “America’s Greatest Pastime” sculpture, carved from 600 pounds of butter, celebrates the nation’s 250th birthday with kids in ’76 jerseys and Declaration-inspired details. Artist Weis and their spouse spent eight freezing days in a 34-degree freezer, battling cold and freezer burn for a masterpiece that draws crowds and sparks joy. It’s not just art—it’s tradition, family, and pure Americana, and they’re committed to keeping it alive for at least five more years. If you’re in Missouri before August 23, don’t miss this buttery, heartwarming spectacle. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
