[1] Pat Denner was commissioned to design the sign for the Stateline Casino in 1952.
[2] When driving east on Interstate 80 a caption under the sign reads, "This is the place," apparently in homage to Brigham Young.
When the Stateline Casino changed ownership, the sign was donated to Wendover.
When the town of West Wendover was incorporated in 1991, the sign was included on the city's seal.
Wendover Will was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the "World's Largest Mechanical Cowboy".
