The Peachoid, in Gaffney South Carolina

What do you get when you cross a spherical water tower with 50 gallons of orange paint (in 20 different shades)? The Gaffney South Carolina Peachoid, of course. Apparently, South Carolina is offended that Georgia is called the “Peach State” when South Carolina grows more peaches. Built in 1981, the Peachoid has stood the test of time although rumor has it the paint was redone so it looked less like a giant butt and more like a giant peach. Oh, that big leaf? It weighs seven tons.
