Long Beach, WA
When Long Beach's annual Clam Festival was mothballed around 2000, so was the World's Largest Spitting Clam. Made of driftwood, standing about five feet tall, it was topped by a white spout that would shoot water several feet high. In 2013 the Festival was revived. A year later, on April 19, 2014, the mayor of Long Beach cut a ribbon and the newly recommissioned Clam made its first spit. The improved clam not only spits for free on the hour, it also spits on demand for anyone who drops a quarter into an adjacent coin slot.
