Kasey Keller likeness designed into five-acre corn maze

Words can't do justice to this one, so I'll rely on the picture above to do the heavy lifting.

In short, Sounders FC goalkeeper Kasey Keller has been turned into a corn maze.

You can go check it out for yourself at the Schilter Family Farm in Olympia (141 Nisqually Cutoff Road SE). The "exhibit" will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily from Oct. 1-31.

Admission is $5 on weekdays and $10 on weekends; ages 2 and under are free.

The price covers access to the corn maze (which includes Keller trivia), the petting farm, hayrides, corn and pumpkin cannons, "round up railway" cow train, hay maze, a hay jump in a 140-year-old barn and other activities.

"It's certainly a unique tribute and very fitting given this is my hometown and my family has known the Schilter family for years and years," said Keller in a news release. "I honestly don't think too many other athletes can say they've had their likeness featured in a corn maze, and that is what makes it really cool to me. I hope a lot of fans can make their way to Olympia and enjoy it."

Sounders FC goalkeeper Kasey Keller has been turned into a corn maze I remember that pose! He was dropping about 37 F-bombs on the defense.  Posted on September 29, 2011 at 12:45 PM by rainier beacher. Jump to comment
Opie, if I recall, someplace in Wisconsin does a Packers-themed corn maze every year, but this likely is a first for MLS.  Posted on September 29, 2011 at 8:33 AM by mskdrum. Jump to comment
Really neat. Maybe a first?  Posted on September 28, 2011 at 4:04 PM by opie of mayberry. Jump to comment
