The Golden Driller
“Dedicated to the men of the petroleum industry who by their vision and daring have created from God’s abundance a better life for mankind.”

What a View from the Road! With his arm resting on an actual oil derrick, standing 76 feet tall, the Golden Driller is the tallest free-standing statue in the United States. We spotted him driving near the fairgrounds, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and most assuredly had to pull over, to what is the most photographed tourist attraction in the city!
Another tourist offered to take our picture!
