The World's Largest Hockey Puck

Puck Yeah!

The World's Largest Hockey Puck is in the Capital City of the State of Hockey! The iconic puck stands at 22.2 feet long (beating the former record of 20 feet), 7.5 feet tall, and a whopping 5,000 pounds—a true testament to Saint Paul's love for the game. This community project was fabricated by Wonder Studio, a fabrication workshop of the Eclective Creative Collective, and was made possible by youth hockey players, families, and local businesses.

See it for yourself in Rice Park at the Bold North Breakaway Fan Festival from December 26 through January 5.
