Heeere's Johnny!

The mural and statue of Johnny Carson at 3rd and Norfolk Avenue in Norfolk, Nebraska.  Someone placed a tiny plastic Oscar statue at the base of his statue.  He never won an Oscar but he did host the Academy Awards five times.

Johnny Carson was born in Iowa but his family moved to Norfolk when he was 8-years old.  He has always considered Norfolk his hometown.
There's really no reason to visit this town, as they don't have anything worth seeing, but if you're driving through you'll know where to find his childhood home or this statue, in case you want to take a selfie.
