"Check out this Guinness Book of World Records official record of the World's largest wood baseball bat," the North Dakota Tourism says.

"Located in the home of the Fargo-Moorhead Red Hawks, Newman Outdoor Field. White Ash 161 Inches (13 ft., 5 in.) Barrel 12 1/2 inches in diameter turned on a lathe in Wahpeton, N.D. in 2000."

"The distinction of "world's biggest bat" depends on how you define your terms. Obviously, the huge bat in front of the Louisville Slugger factory in Kentucky is much bigger than the one shown here," the Budd Road Trips says.

"But "Big Bruce" has been verified as the world's largest wooden baseball bat by Guinness. It's 13 feet, 5 inches long with a circumference of 40 inches. That's a mighty big bat. The Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks own it, and put the bat in their stadium in Fargo. Newman Outdoor Stadium is shared with North Dakota State. The bat was named after Bruce Thorn, the president of the RedHawks.

"You can take a look at it during a game, or when visiting. It's close to the Maury Wills Museum, making a trip a two-fer. By the way, the place's name comes from the Newman Outdoor Advertising Company, which bought the naming rights in 1998."

"The largest baseball bat measures 408.9 cm. (161 in. = 13 ft. 5 in.) with a circumference of 101.6 cm. (40 in.) and is owned by the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks baseball club (Fargo Baseball L.L.C) of Fargo, North Dakota, USA," the Guinness World Records says.

"The bat is known as 'Big Bruce' and made from white ash, the same material as major league baseball bats. It was named after Bruce Thom, President of the RedHawks' Minor League Baseball team the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks.

"A computer measured the specifications of an actual Louisville Slugger bat and a computer-controlled lathe was programmed with those specifications."

"Fargo is a city in and the county seat of Cass County, North Dakota, United States. According to the 2020 census, its population was 125,990, making it the most populous city in the state and the 219th-most populous city in the United States.

"We had to ask someone where the Guinness World's Record largest baseball bat was located. It is on a lower level n the side of the building. Was kind of cool to see."

"The Fargo RedHawks are always fun to watch! Most nights have a giveaway if you come early or fireworks after. Very affordable for a family adventure."

"This is a family friendly field. Comfortable seating. Games are always entertaining. We try to attend once or twice a year. Often have fireworks at the end of a game too."

"Went to see the redhawks and bought tickets on-line in advance. It was a great time. Parking is convenient, plenty of clean restroom space and several food options."

"What a fantastic venue to watch baseball. The Redhawks always put a quality product on the field and the environment is fun. Free ticket promotion via Family Fare grocery stores all season long. Many fun nights and promotions."

"This is Americana at its best. Every seat is a good seat and every snack item is well done and reminiscent of the baseball games of your past (and future)."
