MERIDIAN, Idaho (AP) — An Idaho farmer has shunned 2016 corn maze trends and opted instead for an image of comedian Jimmy Fallon.
The Capital Press reports (http://bit.ly/2ck7ugj ) that Meridian farmer Jim Lowe says he chose the theme because he was looking for something light-hearted and playful. Fallon is a former star of Saturday Night Live and the current host of the Tonight Show.
Lowe owns The Farmstead Corn Maze & Pumpkin Festival and has previously designed corn mazes featuring Abraham Lincoln, a bumblebee and the Statue of Liberty.
Shawn Stolworthy of Idaho Falls owns Mazeplay, a business that cut 110 corn mazes around the United States this year. He says two of the most popular themes this year are Star Trek and "Back the Blue," which supports police officers.
