FIELD GUIDE
The story
A 66-foot soda bottle stands beside Route 66 in Arcadia, Oklahoma, and after dark it lights up in changing colours, according to the business.
The bottle belongs to Pops, a filling station, diner and soda shop that opened in 2007. In 2006 Route 66 News reported the groundbreaking and the plan for a 66-foot bottle, with a straw that would bring it to about 80 feet, ahead of a summer 2007 opening; the 66 echoes the highway's number. The business describes the structure as 66 feet tall, weighing four tons, with 4,000 individual LEDs, and a 100-foot steel canopy over the pumps.
