“Mister Thorn once cornered corn and that ain’t hay” sang Ella Fitzgerald, in the year that two speculators cornered the market for onions in Chicago. It was 1956, and Sam Siegel, a Chicago trader, and Vincent Kosuga, a New York grower, had managed to buy up most of the onions in the city using futures contracts.

Getting lost was never this much fun! In October 2011, Garden Cents nursery employee Bryan Jentszch unveiled his monstrous, mammoth Mega Maze—all 96,847 square feet built out of bales of straw. The maze boasted 3,202 bales of straw (each one weighing about 1,100 pounds) and wound its way through 1.6 miles, on the ground and in an elevated 3D section, including two secret hidden rooms. After the Halloween season the maze was dismantled and the straw distributed to local dairy farms as bedding for cows. And that ain’t hay!
